Nutrient removal from UASB effluent in agro-industries [PDF]
Phosphorus and nitrogen are important elements, making a major contribution to agricultural and industrial development, but their release to natural water bodies are the main causes of eutrophication. Anaerobic digestion yields effluents rich in ammonium

Nitrification and Anammox with Urea as the Energy Source [PDF]
Urea is present in many ecosystems and can be used as an energy source by chemolithotrophic aerobic ammonia oxidizing bacteria (AOB). Thus the utilization of urea in comparison to ammonia, by AOB as well as anaerobic ammonia oxidizing (Anammox) bacteria was investigated, using enrichments cultures, inoculated with activated sludge, and molecular ...

Abstract Denitrification, the microbial process by which nitrate (NO3−) in aquatic systems is converted to N2 and N2O, is widely recognized as an effective and environmentally friendly method for mitigating NO3− pollution in water bodies. However, the complex role of salinity, which could significantly influence the denitrification process, in salt ...

Analysis of intact ladderane phospholipids, originating from viable anammox bacteria, using RP-LC-ESI-MS [PDF]
Since the discovery of the anaerobic ammonium oxidizing (anammox) bacteria, many attempts have been made in order to identify these environmentally important bacteria in natural environments.

The anammoxosome: an intracytoplasmic compartment in anammox bacteria [PDF]
Anammox bacteria belong to the phylum Planctomycetes and perform anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox); they oxidize ammonium with nitrite as the electron acceptor to yield dinitrogen gas. The anammox reaction takes place inside the anammoxosome: an intracytoplasmic compartment bounded by a single ladderane lipid-containing membrane.

Blue Nitrogen: Global Rates and Economic Importance
Abstract Nitrogen (N) pollution drives widespread coastal ecosystem collapse. In this paper, we argue that mangrove forests represent an undervalued natural mitigation solution for N pollution. By performing a comprehensive global meta‐analysis, we reveal that mangroves remove 870 Gg N annually, which represents an economic value reaching $8.7 billion ...
