The electrochemical oxidation of ammonia was investigated on a Ni/Ni(OH)(2) electrode prepared by potential cycling of a Ni electrode in 1 M NaClO4. It was found that oxidation of ammonia is strongly pH dependent and proceeds mainly at pH values above 7. T ...
The work presented in this thesis was carried out in the framework of two European projects: SOLWATER, and AQUACAT. The global objective of those projects, including the present work, was to set an autonomous system for drinking water production in develop ...
The vertical distribution of methane- and ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (MOB and AOB, respectively), and the physicochemical conditions in the chemocline of Lake Kinneret (Israel) were studied at a resolution of 10 cm from 16.2 to 17.7 m depth. Profiles of th ...
Electrochemical oxidation of ammonia (NH3 and NH4+) on boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrode was studied using differential electrochemical mass-spectrometry (DEMS) and chronoamperometry. Electro-oxidation of ammonia induces inhibition of the oxygen evolutio ...
The aerobic and anaerobic ammonium-oxidizing bacterial guilds were studied from two multilevel samplers in an ammonium-contaminated aquifer in the UK. By end point polymerase chain reaction (PCR), the presence of betaproteobacterial ammonium-oxidizing bact ...
