Abstract In order to strengthen the removal efficiency of wastewater containing Se(IV) by anaerobic microorganisms, anaerobic sequencing batch reactor (ASBR) was used to study the effect of Fe3O4 on the removal of Se (IV) by anaerobic microorganisms, and the changes of selenium concentration in the effluent, selenium form and distribution, selenium reductase activity and microbial flora were analyzed. The results showed that Fe3O4 had no effect on the removal of Se(IV) at the wastewater with a high carbon source concentration by anaerobic microorganisms, but Fe3O4 could significantly improve the efficiency and rate of Se(IV) reduction at the wastewater with a low carbon source concentration by anaerobic microorganisms. Compared with the control group, the removal efficiency of Se (IV) in the magnetic group increased from (97.3±0.5)% to (98.2±0.5)%, and the maximum removal rate raised by 3.6 times. Compared with the control group, Fe3O4 decreased the proportion of Se (IV) and Se(0) in the supernatant and increased the proportion of Se (-II), and Fe3O4 strengthened the reduction process of Se(0)-Se(II) by anaerobic microorganisms. Fe3O4 improved increasing selenite-reduction activities, such as sulfite reductase, glutathione reductase, peripheral fumarate reductase and nitrite reductase. High-throughput sequencing results showed that Fe3O4 increased the relative abundance of iron-reducing bacteria Rhodococcaceae as well as the abundance of Anaerolineaceae and Dechlorobacter related to electron transport. Therefore Fe3O4 enhanced Se(IV) reduction by increasing reductase activities and inducing Fe(III) reduction to accelerate electron transfer. This study's results can provide technical support for the treatment of Se(IV) containing wastewater with low carbon source.
