摘要

Leakage and migration of landfill leachate are often accompanied by complex biogeochemical processes that form a continuous series of redox zones in the leachate plume. Nitrogen in leachate, especially NH4⁺-N, is one of the most important pollutants contributing to groundwater contamination. While traditional landfill pollution prevention and control measures often have difficulty effectively addressing the complex migration and transformation behaviors of NH4⁺-N in leachate, an in-depth study of the migration and transformation processes of NH4⁺-N in the redox compartment is crucial for the development of accurate and efficient pollution prevention and control strategies. In this study, static transformation experiments, dynamic simulated column experiments and high-throughput sequencing techniques were used to systematically investigate the migration and transformation processes of NH₄⁺-N in the redox bands of a simulated landfill. The results showed that in the NH4⁺-N transformation experiment, the soil in the simulated oxidation zone had the strongest ability to transform NH4⁺-N, with the NH4⁺-N concentration decreasing from 40 to 0.03 mg/L, whereas the sterilization treatment completely suppressed the transformation process of NH4⁺-N in the OZ. The NH4⁺-N in the continuous redox zone completely penetrated the simulated soil column on the 7th day, and the maximum effluent concentration was stable in the range of 1530 ± 30 mg/L. The trends of NH4⁺-N in each independent redox zone were consistent, with the TZ having the richest microbial community abundance and number of species, and some Acidobacteria were able to reduce Fe(III) under anoxic conditions and interact with the organic matter, which effectively contributed to the cycling of Fe within the TZ. These findings indicate that there are significant differences in the biogeochemical cycling process of NH4⁺-N in different redox zone environments, and this study provides a new research perspective for a deeper understanding of the biogeochemical cycling mechanism of the elements in landfills and an important scientific basis for the prevention, control, and remediation of landfill pollution.
