Di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) has been classified as a priority pollutant which increased the healthy risk to human and animals dramatically. Hence, a novel biochemical system combined by DEHP-resistant bacterial flora (B) and a green oxidant of persulfate (PS) activated by Nano-Fe₃O₄ was applied to degrade DEHP in contaminated soil. In this study, the resistant bacterial flora was screened from activated sludge and immobilized by sodium alginate (SAB). Nano-Fe₃O₄ was coated on biochar (BC@Fe₃O₄) to prevent agglomerating in soil. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) were utilized to characterize BC@Fe₃O₄. Results demonstrated that the treatment of biochemical system (SAB + BC@Fe₃O₄ + PS) presented the maximum degradation rate about 92.56% within 24 days of incubation and improved soil microecology. The 16S rDNA sequences analysis of soil microorganisms showed a significantly different abundance and a similar diversity among different treatments. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) functional genes difference analysis showed that some metabolic pathways, such as metabolism of cofactors and vitamins, energy metabolism, cell growth and death, replication and repair, were associated with the biodegradation of DEHP. Besides, DEHP was converted to MEHP and PA by biodegradation, while DEHP was converted to DBP and PA by persulfate and BC@Fe₃O₄, and then ultimately degraded to CO₂ and H₂O.
