    Some observations on free ammonia inhibition to Nitrobacter in nitrifying biofilm reactor

    Free ammonia inhibition to Nitrobacter population in a nitrifying biofilm was investigated. It was found that when the tree ammonia concentration is greater than 0.1 mgN/l the oxidative activity of Nitrobacter wa...

    Use of a sequencing batch reactor to study the biodegradation of 4-chlorophenol in soil

    A sequencing batch reactor (SBR) was used to study the biodegradation of 4-chlorophenol (4CP) in a soil slurry. The SBR system was controlled by measuring the carbon dioxide evolution rate (CER) in the gas pha...
