Conversion of coastal marsh to aquaculture ponds altered soil ammonia oxidiser community and decreased ammonia oxidation potential

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 3, Issue 3, September 2024.
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]

open access: yes, 2021
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 ...

Impact of nitrapyrin on urea‐based fertilizers in a Mediterranean calcareous soil: Nitrogen and microbial dynamics

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Soil Science, Volume 75, Issue 4, July–August 2024.
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

Evaluation of the process performance of comammox-like nitrospira dominant down-flow hanging sponge reactor with reduced nitrous oxide emissions

open access: yesWater Research X
Nitrification/denitrification mitigates excess nitrogen in wastewater and reduces nutrient pollution in recipient surface waters but emits substantial amounts of nitrous oxide (N₂O).

Enrichment and activity of comammox Nitrospira from the rotating biological contactors of a municipal wastewater treatment system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
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]

open access: yes
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.

Nutrient cycling potential within microbial communities on culturally important stoneworks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Previous studies on microbes associated with deterioration of cultural heritage (CH) stoneworks have revealed a diverse microbiota adapted to stresses such as low nutrients, aridity and high salinity, temperatures and radiation.

Establishment and calibration of consensus process model for nitrous oxide dynamics in water quality engineering [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Forskning i biologisk kvælstoffjernelse på spildevandsrensningsanlæg har historisk fokuseret på at opnå en god udledningskvalitet, mens opmærksom-heden de seneste år er blevet rettet mod energibesparelser og CO2-udslip.
