“…A bio-electrochemical reactor processed by electrolysis of water producing oxygen gas at the anode and hydrogen gas at the cathode for simultaneous nitrification and denitrification (SND) has also been proposed (Goel and Flora, 2005). So far, BER systems that depend on electrolysis of water have been extensively investigated for use in biological nitrogen removal (Feleke and Sakakibara, 2002;Hayes et al, 1998;Islam and Suidan, 1998;Sakakibara and Nakayama, 2001;Szekeres et al, 2001;Wan et al, 2009;Watanabe et al, 2002). However, these electrochemically enhanced nitrogen removals require high applied voltage which is greater than 1.8 V at neutral pH, resulting in increase of electric energy input.…”
