Propionate is one of the most important intermediates in anaerobic digestion, and its degradation requires a syntrophic partnership between propionate-oxidizing bacteria and hydrogenotrophic methanogens. Anaerobic digestion efficiency can be improved by direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) through conductive materials. This study aimed to investigate the effects of DIET on syntrophic propionate oxidization under room temperature (20°C) and reveal the syntrophic partners. Firstly, conventional anaerobic consortium and conductive material-enriched consortium were tested for DIET under high H2 partial pressure. The latter supplemented with granular activated carbon (GAC) can mitigate H2 inhibition through DIET. Secondly, a DIET consortium was enriched for testing GAC and magnetite, both showed DIET facilitation. Microbial communities in GAC- and magnetite-supplemented reactors were similar. Syntrophic propionate-oxidizing bacteria, for example, Smithella (3.9%-9.9%) and a genus from the family Syntrophaceae (1.9%-3.6%) and methanogens Methanobacterium (30.3%-75.2%), Methanolinea (8.5%-25.2%), Methanosaeta (11.4%-36.7%), and Candidatus Methanofastidiosum (3.6%-6.6%), were predominant. Functional genes for cell mobility and membrane transport (3.3% and 9.5% in control reactor) increased with GAC (3.7% and 11.1%, respectively) and magnetite (3.7% and 10.9%, respectively) addition. Syntrophic propionate-oxidizing bacteria and methanogenesis partners were revealed by co-occurrence network, for example, Methanobacterium with Smithella, Syntrophobacter, Dechloromonas, and Trichococcus, signifying the importance of the syntrophic partnership in DIET environment. PRACTITIONER POINTS: DIET improved syntrophic propionate oxidization under room temperature condition (20°C). Microbial communities were similar for GAC- and magnetite-supplemented reactors, different with control reactor. Syntrophic propionate-oxidizing bacteria and methanogenesis partners were revealed by co-occurrence network. Methanobacterium and Smithella, Syntrophobacter, Dechloromonas, and Trichococcus were correlated
