The book titled “Unexplored Section of Biological Nitrogen Cycle in Industrial Wastewater Treatment – Anammox Process: Technological Advancement and Application in Industrial Wastewater Treatment Plant” offers a comprehensive overview of current research on nitrogen removal in wastewater treatment. It delves into various operational factors that influence the performance of nitrogen removal, including the type of reactor employed, the mode of operation—whether batch or continuous—and the specific types of cultured anammox bacteria utilized.
Additionally, the book identifies potential inhibitors of the anammox process, including high nitrite concentrations, elevated salinity levels, sulfides, toxic metals, and organic compounds. It provides an in-depth analysis of how these factors can interact, highlighting both synergistic and antagonistic toxic effects on the process. Moreover, the book proposes strategies to optimize anammox processes for effective wastewater treatment and emphasizes the need for further research into the applications of anammox technology in industrial settings.
