Heterotrophic nitrifying-aerobic denitrifying (HN-AD) bacteria can simultaneously complete nitrification and denitrification processes under aerobic conditions, significantly simplifying wastewater treatment procedures. These strains exhibit rapid growth, tolerance to extreme environments, and are widely applied in various wastewater treatments. This review summarizes the nitrogen removal pathways of HN-AD bacteria and highlights the potential of novel immobilization carriers (composite materials, magnetic nanocarriers, and biochar) for nitrogen removal across diverse wastewater sectors. It focuses on elucidating the fundamental principles, application cases, current research status, and future prospects of emerging immobilization technologies, including biomimetic mineralization immobilization, electrospun fiber immobilization, and 3D printing carrier immobilization. The enhanced effects of novel immobilization strategies on improving nitrogen removal efficiency and system stability are discussed. Finally, challenges and future prospects for HN-AD bacterial immobilization technology during fabrication and application are outlined.
