Understanding the Denitrification Dynamics of Nitrifying Microorganisms

Dr. Chris Sedlacek and his team aim to determine how nitrifying microorganisms are able to produce nitrous oxide through denitrification. Read more...

Mitigation of N2O Emissions from Wastewater Biofilms

Microsensors confirm that counter-diffusion biofilms have lower N2O emissions than co-diffusion biofilms. In this study, Professor Akihiko Terada and his research group at Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology have investigated mitigation of N2O emissions in a membrane-aerated biofilm reactor (MABR).

Nitrogen removal in wastewater

A research group studied nitritation as a means for nitrogen removal in wastewater. In this study, they compared membrane aerated biofilm reactors MABRs (counter-diffusion) with conventional
biofilm reactors (co-diffusion) in order to evaluate the influence of environmental conditions and operational parameters on nitritation performance. Read more...
