“…An active culture of acclimated pig wastewater nitrifying bacteria was prepared from overland flow soil seed. The ammonia strength of the salts medium was gradually increased to overcome inhibitory effects caused by high levels of free ammonia in pig wastewater, similar to procedures used for acclimation of marine nitrifiers (Furukawa et al 1993). Acclimated nitrifying cells were immobilised in 3-5 mm polyvinyl alcohol polymer cubes.…”

“…Also, it is possible to store excess sludge anaerobically up to four days to serve as backup sludge for restarting the plant. Whereas Salem et al (2005) found that the decay rate of ammonia oxidizers after 14 days of starvation at 20°C was 0.02 day -1 , Furukawa et al (1993), who stored the nitrifiers in a refrigerator for 6 days, reported that the pellets of acclimated marine nitrifying sludge could regain their full activity.…”

“…In biological ammonia removal systems, nitrifying activity of suspended bacteria has been reported to be extremely low, due to slow growth rate and inhibition of nitrification by free ammonia and nitrite under the alkaline conditions of seawater (Bower and Turner 1981;Furukawa et al 1993). Without the addition of nitrifiers as start-up cultures, 2-3 months are needed to establish nitrification in marine systems (Manthe and Malone 1987) and 2-3 weeks in freshwater (Masser et al 1999).…”
