[Effect of Ni(Ⅱ) on Anaerobic Ammonium Oxidation and Changes in Kinetics].

Anaerobic ammonium oxidation (ANAMMOX) is widely used for treatment of ammonium-rich wastewater because of its economic and environmental benefits. However, ANAMMOX bacteria are sensitive to environmental conditions, especially to heavy metals. The short-term and long-term effects of Ni(Ⅱ) on ANAMMOX were studied by batch and continuous flow experiments, respectively.
