INTRODUCTION Nitrification is a microbiological process by which reduced nitrogen compounds (primarily ammonia) are sequentially oxidized to nitrite and nitrate (AWWA and EES 2002). Nitrification can be problematic in potable water systems that use chloramines for residual (or...
This dissertation considers various questions with respect to the effects of salinity on nutrification: what are the main inhibiting factors causing the effects, do all salts have similar effects, what is the maximum acceptable salt level, are ammonia oxidisers or nitrite oxidizers most sensitive...
This International Standard specifies a method for assessing the short-term inhibitory effect of waters, waste waters or test substances on nitrifying bacteria in activated sludge. The inhibitory effect is estimated over an exposure period of usually 4 h or up to 24 h with weakly nitrifying sludge....

This International Standard specifies a method for the determination of the elimination and the biodegradibility of organic compounds by aerobic micro-organisms. The conditions described simulate a waste-water treatment plant. Two test systems can be used: activated sludge plants or porous...
This International Standard specifies a rapid method for the determination of the potential rate of ammonium oxidation and inhibition of nitrification in soils. This method is suitable for all soils containing a population of nitrifying microorganisms. It can be used as a rapid screening...

Nitrogen rich wastewaters (10-400 mg N L-1) are usually produced by municipal, industrial and agricultural wastes, such as effluents from anaerobic treatments. These represent a risk to the environment due to the high nutrient concentrations (nitrogen and phosphorous), which can cause...
This document specifies a method for the selective determination of dicyandiamide (DCD) in addition to all the other forms of nitrogen fixations, particularly in fertilizers to which DCD has been added as a nitrification inhibiting agent.
This part of ISO 5815 specifies the determination of the biochemical oxygen demand of waters by dilution and seeding with suppression of nitrification after 5 d incubation time. This part of ISO 5815 is applicable to all waters having biochemical oxygen demands usually between 3 mg/l and 6...
