Enhancing Nitrate Removal from Waters with Low Organic Carbon Concentration Using a Bioelectrochemical System—A Pilot-Scale Study

Nitrate Removal from Aqueous Solutions Using Granular Activated Carbon Modified with Iron Nanoparticles (RESEARCH NOTE)

Nitrate contamination of water resources and the growing concentration of nitrate endanger human health and the environment and considering its reduction strategies from water resources is important. The aim of this study was to investigate the possibility of removal of nitrate from aqueous solutions using granular activated carbon from grape wood coated with iron nanoparticles. The results sho...

Nitrate Removal from Wastewater Using Different Carbon Sources

Nutrient loading in water bodies has known to cause eutrophication and nutrient leaching. These are identified as a major global environmental issue, contributing to health hazards and various environmental threats. There are many sources of nitrogen and phosphorus which have been increased largely over the years. Instead of controlling the source, the main processes involved is the reduction o...

biological nitrate removal from groundwater by filamentous media at pilot scale, 2015

abstract   background: the compounds which contain nitrogen entering the environment can cause some problems, such as eutrophication for water resources and potential risk for human health because of methemoglobinemia and cancer. biological techniques are effective in removing nitrate. the aim of this study was to remove nitrate from groundwater using denitrification. the main objectives of thi...

Enhancing Nitrate Removal from Freshwater Pond by Regulating Carbon/Nitrogen Ratio

Nitrogen accumulation is a serious environmental problem in freshwater ponds, which can lead to massive death of fish and shrimps as well as the eutrophication. The removal of nitrate by regulating the carbon to nitrogen (C/N) ratio and the underlying mechanisms were investigated. The nitrate removal system comprised 530-mL medium containing 5 mg/L [Formula: see text]-N and 0-66.6 mg/L COD (i.e...
