  • The basics of nitrogen removal in wastewater treatment systems. Focusing on biological nitrification and denitrification. This applies to most all biological reactors, but the video focuses on the Carrousel System by Eimco Water Technologies.

    Steven,
    This is without a doubt, the clearest and most informative description of the wastewater nitrogen removal process I've come across.

      I'm so happy to see you are studying aquaculture. I'm going for a bachelor degree in environmental science. Now I study micro biology.
      My hobby is aquaponic and are very interested in aquaculture as well.
      Sustainability is my motto (could you guess hahaha) and I would live to talk with someone in this topic (aquaculture).
      I'm trying to find solutions for dinitrifacation as nitrate is the hardest impact in aquaculture. Sure you have seen pic's from Laguna de Bay in Philippines (just Google if you have not already seen it).
      Enough for now;)
      Beware, english is not my native tongue. I'm from Scandinavian country, so bear with me;).
      If you are interested pls contact me (not sure if it's possible to from here). However, that's not a problem. Dot down some words here and I'll give you my mail. I don't care about spam, I'll soon change may adress soon anyway hahaha.
      If not, I which you all the best with your studies!

    @rachelmcnamee4581 5 років тому

    Very well made. So helpful in understanding the process. The only this I would add, is that if you were two have two tanks one feeding the other - it makes more sense to have denitrification happen first (because of the need for BOD) and then have Nitrification occur in the second tank.
    Particularly liked the problem solving at the end.
    Thank you!
