Denitrification of Ground Water/Waste Water using the Aquacel System
Within the United States there are vast reserves of ground water which are no longer suitable for drinking because of high concentration (> 10 mg/l NO3-N) nitrates. Furthermore,...
Production of Nitrous Oxide Gas under Sequencing Batch Reactor System
N2O, like CO2, H2O, and CH6,...
Fluidized Bed Denitrification of Secondary Effluent during Wastewater Reclamation in Southern California
A pilot scale fluidized bed denitrification bioreactor was operated for a period of three years as one unit process in a series designed to repurify secondary effluent for subsequent indirect...
Anaerobic Biodegradation of High Energetics in Digestion Sewage Sludge
The digested sewage sludge culture is highly effective for denitrification and the subsequent degradation of energetics contained nitrites. Two energetics, ADN (ammonium dinitramide) and...
Denitrification Inhibition by High Nitrate Wastes
The adaptation of activated sludge and inhibition of denitrification at high nitrate concentrations was studied using pH controlled bench-scale sequencing batch reactors (SBRs), operated...
Aerobic Denitrification in Activated Sludge
Definitive proof of the phenomenon of concurrent biological nitrification-denitrification in activated sludge is presented. The mechanism appears to be an inhibition of oxygen respiration...
Protecting a Sensitive Ecosystem Through Advanced Treatment at the Reno-Sparks Wastewater Treatment Facility
The requirements for high degrees of nutrient removal at the Reno-Sparks Wastewater Treatment Facility required employment of several cost-effective, innovative treatment process applications....
Effects of Solute Transport Processes on In-Situ Denitrification for Nitrate Control in Ground Water
This paper discusses the effects of solute transport mechanisms on the effectiveness of biodenitrification in the subsurface environment. The only solute transport processes apparently...
The Economic Feasibility of Using Ethanol to Accelerate Groundwater Denitrification
A substantial buildup of nitrate in the groundwater of the eastern Sandhills region of Nebraska is projected by some planners. A groundwater carbon source such as ethanol promotes denitrification,...
The Optimization of Nitrification and Denitrification in Plug-Flow Activated Sludge Systems Treating Municipal Wastestreams
Most conventional plug-flow activated sludge plants experience nitrification, particularly during higher temperature conditions. Under these circumstances, additional power is required...
Potential for Nitrate Removal from Groundwater Supplies Using Biological Deintrification
Nitrate concentrations in groundwater supplies have been increasing over the years throughout many areas in the U. S. to the point of posing potential health dangers to a multitude of...
Significance of In-Stream Denitrification
In-stream denitrification rates were calculated using a simultaneous nitrogen and dissolved oxygen mass balancing technique. Anaerobic, laboratory, incubation of stream bottom samples...
