摘要

Even after mine closure, continuous chemical treatment of mine water and proper sludge management remain necessary. Previously, a pilot-scale rapid sand filter (RSF) system was applied to treat manganese-containing circumneutral mine water (21 mg/L Mn2⁺, pH 7.0) at a mine site, achieving up to 40% Mn removal. In this study, adjusting the inlet water pH to 8.5 and 9.0 increased Mn removal rates to 89.5% and 95.0%, respectively. Although microbial contribution to Mn2⁺ oxidation under alkaline conditions is presumed to be minimal, dominant bacterial species on the sand filters were investigated using nanopore sequencing. Stenotrophomonas maltophilia-related bacteria were highly dominant, with relative abundances ranging from 8.83% to 24.5%. After isolating the strain designated AS50Mn from sand filters, its growth and Mn-oxidizing ability were examined under alkaline conditions. As Mn-oxidizing activity was not confirmed at pH 8.5 and 9.0 under the experimental conditions, the strain’s dominance is likely due to traits such as alkaline tolerance and heavy metal resistance.
