Denitrification kinetics in biological nitrogen and phosphorus removal activated sludge systems

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

In order to size the anoxic reactors in nutrient (N and P) removal activated sludge plants, it is essential to know the denitrification kinetics that are operative in such systems. To date, denitrification kinetics have been accurately defined only for systems that remove N alone; little research has been performed on denitrification in N and P removal plants.
