Abstract

In this chapter the fundamental aspects involved in biological treatment processes applied for the removal of nitrogen from wastewaters are described. A comprehensive review of the literature is provided including kinetic, microbiological and biochemical aspects of nitrification, denitrification and anammox, as well as key operational parameters affecting the processes. This information is relevant for designing wastewater treatment processes applied for the removal of nitrogen from wastewaters. The information is also essential for predicting and controlling the performance of these treatment processes.
