“…Electricity-driven ammonium (NH 4 + ) oxidation to dinitrogen gas (N 2 ) has been recently proved using ANAMMOX bacteria [ 1 ]. A similar process has been observed in the presence of feammox [ 2 , 3 ] or nitrifying bacteria, even though the mechanism is still mostly unknown in this latter case [ [4] , [5] , [6] , [7] , [8] , [9] ]. However, the electrical stimulation of heterotrophic nitrifying microorganisms has not been evaluated yet [ 10 , 11 ].…”
