Nitrification is a biological process that involves the oxidation of ammonia and other nitrogen-containing compounds into nitrite and then nitrate. This process is important in wastewater treatment as it helps to reduce the concentration of organic pollutants in the water.
Denitrification, on the other hand, is a process that reduces nitrate and nitrite into gaseous nitrogen and nitrous oxide. This process is important in wastewater treatment as it helps remove excess nitrogen from the water, thus reducing the risk of eutrophication and algae blooms in surface waters and groundwater.
