Nitrosomonas spp

Nitrapyrin (7), 2-chloro-6-trichloromethylpyridine, is actually a nitrification inhibitor, slowing down the conversion of ammonium-nitrogen into nitrate. It has a selective bactericidal effect against Nitrosomonas spp. (Goring, 1%2). However, it has been observed that nitrapyrin reduces the stem rot of maize and cereals. In... [Pg.428]

The majority of bacteria are Gram-negative organisms and the coli-aerogenes group account for only a small fraction. Bdellovibrio bacteri-ovorus which attacks bacteria reduces the bacterial numbers. Antibiotic-resistant aeromonads have been isolated from some samples. Nitrosomonas spp. are also present and are responsible for nitrification of ammonia. [Pg.389]

Biofiltration can be used to remove volatile organic compounds, including odors, from waste air.295 Pseudomonas spp. can remove toluene, and Bacillus spp., ethanol. The process is suitable for use on food-processing plants, public treatment works, and others, to control odors. The cost can be quite a bit lower than that of incineration or adsorption on carbon. A biofilter with Nitrosomonas eu ropaea immobilized in calcium alginate removed 97.5% of ammonia from air.296... [Pg.262]
