Abstract Introduction As a crucial component of the nitrogen cycle, ammonia oxidation in soil can be driven by canonical ammonia‐oxidising archaea (AOA) and bacteria, as well as complete ammonia oxidiser (CMX Nitrospira). Land use change can disrupt and alter the soil microbial community and the nitrogen cycle.

Optimization of Nitrogen Removal Rate in One-Stage Reactor through Partial Nitrification Anammox Process during Direct Treatment of Poultry Litter Wastewater [PDF]
Anammox is an increasingly common process used for the treatment of reject water and even mainstream wastewater due to its low oxygen demand. However, anammox is not commonly utilized in the direct treatment of poultry litter because of the high organic ...

Abstract Nitrification inhibitors, such as nitrapyrin (NI), are increasingly co‐applied with nitrogen (N) fertilizers as part of sustainable agricultural practice. Several studies in temperate regions have documented the effectiveness of NI in retaining soil ammonium (NH4+), minimizing N loss and increasing crop yields. However, less is known about the

Enrichment and activity of comammox Nitrospira from the rotating biological contactors of a municipal wastewater treatment system [PDF]
Nitrification, the biological conversion of ammonia to nitrate, via nitrite, is an important process in both natural and engineered systems. Nitrification within wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) is necessary because elevated ammonia concentrations are

Investigating microbial and environmental drivers of nitrification in alkaline forest soil [PDF]
Ammonia oxidation is a key step in the biogeochemical cycling of nitrogen, and soils are important ecosystems for nitrogen flux globally. Approximately 25% of the world’s soils are alkaline.
