Abstract:BACKGROUND: A high nitrate concentration in groundwater in some parts of Iran has been detected due to untreated wastewater discharge and agriculture activities. Therefore, the development of treatment technology in this area using a new biological method was carried out. RESULTS: Activated sludge originating from slaughterhouse wastewater treatment plants and immobilized on graphite granules exhibited noticeable denitrification activity in a double chamber upflow tubular microbial fuel cell (UTMFC). The effec… Show more
