The relatively low pH of 5.5 in the RT1 inhibited the activity of hydrogenotrophic archaea without consuming hydrogen, facilitating high hydrogen production levels. V.For comprehensive estimation of the metal treatment efficiency of bioretention systems, information on metal speciation in the stormwater and the effluent is needed. However, so far, most bioretention studies only considered total metal concentrations. Despite their environmental importance, dissolved metals (defined as fractions 95%, detailed fractionation revealed that Cu and (when no salt was added) Zn removal in the less then 0.45 μm and less then 3 kDa fractions was significantly lower. Further, mean concentrations of Cu and (in one treatment) Cd in the less then 0.45 μm effluent fraction did not meet Swedish receiving water quality guidelines. By calculating the particulate, colloidal and truly dissolved fractions, it was shown that bioretention systems affect metal speciation of Cu and Zn. Colloidal and truly dissolved fractions were mostly prevalent in the effluent rather than the influent. Salt affected metal removal mostly negatively. Fractionation was affected by salt mainly in the influent where it increased the concentrations of Cd and Zn in the truly dissolved fraction (no effects on Cu and Pb fractions). In the effluent, Cu and Zn were only slightly affected by salt. Vegetation had mostly no significant effects on metal removal and fractionation. Further integration of detailed metal fractionation into sampling routines in bioretention research is recommended. The re-emergence of vanadium (V) as a toxic metal has been highlighted recently due to its long-standing environmental and health hazard. This work targeted the world largest reservoir-Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR) to explore the spatial variation of V in the flooding soils
