The first direct evidence for the occurrence of anaerobic ammonia oxidation derived from wastewater bioreactors, where bacterial populations oxidizing ammonia with nitrite and producing dinitrogen could be grown in enrichment cultures (Mulder et al. 1995 van de Graaf et al. 

Under which environmental conditions would you expect anammox (anaerobic ammonia oxidation) to be an important process ... 

Terada et al. (2007) used a multipopulation model to compare co- and counter-diffusion biofilms for autotrophic nitrogen removal, which is a process that depends on coexistence between aerobic and anaerobic ammonia-oxidizers. They showed that the counter-diffusion biofilm outperformed the co-diffusion biofilm for biofilm thicknesses between 450 and 1400 pm. The counter-diffusion biofilm had a wider application range and was expected to work better for applications with fluctuations in loading rates. 

You might believe that organic chemists don t have a sense of humor, but there are quite a few jokes in nomenclature (Figure 2.5). With the exception of fenestrane LdXm, fenestra, window), these molecules or their derivatives have all been synthesized. Fenestrane can be made but only when we have at least one 5-membered ring in the structure. Compound 2.15 is called a ladder-ane, and surprisingly, it s a natural product, found in anaerobic ammonia-oxidizing bacteria and synthesized by Corey.
