nitrification

It has been found to act as a nitrification inhibitor in soil.

Lakes that rely on ground water are often affected by nitrification through this process.

If ammonia levels are too high, nitrification must happen.

Nitrification is an important step in the nitrogen cycle in soil.

Nitrification also plays an important role in the removal of nitrogen from municipal wastewater.

Nitrification could potentially become a "bottleneck" in the nitrogen cycle.

Land application can be an attractive alternative to the mechanical aeration needed for nitrification.

The process of ammonia being converted into nitrate is referred to as nitrification.

Nitrification will occur readily down to 0.3 ppm dissolved oxygen.

For instance, nitrification is hierarchically more favoured than sulphate reduction.

It is also an intermediate in biological nitrification.

Nitrification itself is a two-step aerobic process, each step facilitated by a different type of bacteria.

Nitrification is important in agricultural systems, where fertilizer is often applied as ammonia.

Nitrification can also occur in drinking water.

The addition of chlorite ion to chloramine-treated water has been shown to control nitrification.

This helps to remove ammonia also through nitrification.

There has also been research done showing that Brachiaria could inhibits nitrification of soils.

By extension, animal waste contributes to environmental pollution through nitrification and acidification of soil.

To prevent fish deaths, nitrification via aeration prior to discharge is often desirable.

NO is produced naturally in the soil during the microbial processes of nitrification and denitrification.

Thus increased sludge retention times, usually exceeding 15 days, ensure complete nitrification even in extremely cold weather.

In the current issue of the journal Nature, they say it is the first example of a nitrogen-fixing plant that also performs nitrification.

Water hyacinth is also observed to enhance nitrification in waste water treatment cells of living technology.

This "nitrification" process requires oxygen (aerobic conditions), without which the biofilter can crash.

The conventional removal is nitrification, followed by denitrification.
