Resources on Nitrification and Denitrification for Mechanical Wastewater Treatment Plants

This page provides additional information on the nitrification and denitrification process within wastewater treatment systems. This information may be particularly useful to permittees and operators of mechanical wastewater treatment plants. Denitrification is an extra phase of treatment that is often required for wastewater treatment systems that discharge to groundwater – this extra treatment step helps ensure that the treated effluent meets the groundwater permit limitations for total inorganic nitrogen.
