Mechanistic insights into nitrification by microalgae-bacterial consortia in a photo-sequencing batch reactor under different light intensities

S. Arun et al.

Summary: A consortium of microalgae, ammonia-oxidizing bacteria, and nitrite-oxidizing bacteria showed high NH4+ removal efficiency at light intensities up to 1500 µmol m(-2) s(-1), but the removal process was affected at light intensities above 1500 µmol m(-2) s(-1). This indicates that the mechanism of ammonium removal is strongly influenced by the daily average light intensity.
