Abstract: In order to promote the engineering application of denitrification and desulfurization process, 2 highly-active autotrophic denitrifying bacterial strains H3 and H7 were screened from stable UASB with denitrification and desulfurization, and the strains were identified and characterized. Two strains were both gram negative bacteria, the 16S rDNA sequence analysis revealed that strain H3 and H7 had a similarity of 99.6%, 98.9% with Pseudomonas stutzeri CONC12 and P. stutzeri 19smn4 respectively. Combing the morphologic, physiobiochemical characteristics and the analysis of its 16S rDNA, 2 strains were identified as P. stutzeri. The results of growth and denitrification of 2 strains demonstrated that the optimal initial pH for H3 and H7 growth were 6.94 and 6.88 respectively, for denitrification were 6.77 and 6.56 respectively. The optimal temperatures for growth were 30.4℃ and 30.6℃, for denitrification were 31.4℃ and 31.2℃ respectively, both of H3 and H7 were non-resistant strains to salt.

Key words: desulfurization denitrifying bacteria, 16S rDNA, denitrification characteristic, non-resistant strain to salt
