Investigation of the Optimal Dissolved CO2 Concentration and pH Combination for the Growth of Nitrifying Bacteria
Ammonium (NH4+) is a biological nutrient that is transformed in a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) in a process called activated sludge. This is accomplished in an aerobic environment using microorganisms and inorganic carbon that convert the ammonium to nitrate (NO3-). This process is termed nit...
