Reducing Ammonia Losses By Adding FeCI3 During Composting Of Sewage Sludge [PDF]
, 1999 The release of ammonia nitrogen during composting of sewage sludge mixed with a lignocellulosic bulking agent leads to a reduction in the agronomic value of the final compost and to harmful effects on the environment. We propose adding a cheap salt FeCl3

Enzymology and bioenergetics of respiratory nitrite ammonification [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Reviews, 2002 Nitrite is widely used by bacteria as an electron acceptor under anaerobic conditions. In respiratory nitrite ammonification an electrochemical proton potential across the membrane is generated by electron transport from a non-fermentable substrate like formate or H(2) to nitrite.
