The researchers studied how adding ethanol waste liquor to wastewater can boost denitrification in treatment plants. By doing so, they increased denitrification rate from 0.74 to 2.11 mg/(g?h) and denitrification potential from 5.6 to 16.2 mg/L. This method helps estimate the total denitrification potential in urban wastewater treatment plants and can lead to strategies for reducing nitric acid in effluent.
