Global water demand is continuously growing due to rising population and associated
industrial and agricultural activities. However, these factors are also polluting the existing …

Natural processes and human activities play a crucial role in changing the nitrogen cycle
and increasing nitrous oxide (N 2 O) emissions, which are accelerating at an unprecedented …

Throughout the 20th century, the prevailing approach toward nitrogen management in
municipal wastewater treatment was to remove ammonium by transforming it into dinitrogen …

Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from wastewater treatment plants vary substantially between
plants, ranging from negligible to substantial (a few per cent of the total nitrogen load) …

Nitrous oxide (N2O), a potent greenhouse gas, can be emitted during wastewater treatment,
significantly contributing to the greenhouse gas footprint. Measurements at lab-scale and full …

Nitrous oxide (N2O) is an important greenhouse gas (GHG) which has a global warming
potential 310 times that of carbon dioxide (CO2) over a hundred year lifespan. N2O is …

Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a powerful atmospheric greenhouse gas and cause of ozone layer
depletion. Global emissions continue to rise. More than two-thirds of these emissions arise …

When faced with a shortage of oxygen, many bacterial species use nitrate to support
respiration via the process of denitrification. This takes place extensively in nitrogen-rich …

Despite recognition of the possible role of biological nitrogen removal (BNR) processes in
nitrous oxide (N2O) emission, a measured database of N2O emissions from these …

International guidance for estimating emissions of the greenhouse gas, nitrous oxide (N2O),
from biological nutrient removal (BNR) wastewater systems is presently inadequate. This …
