Nitrifying MBBR Performance Optimization in Temperate Climates Through Understanding Biofilm Morphology and Microbiome

Nitrification is currently the most common means of ammonia removal from wastewaters in temperate climates. In conventional suspended growth systems operating in northern climate regions, nitrification completely ceases at temperatures below 8°C. This is a considerable concern in passive treatment s...
