Modeling of the effect of zeolite concentration on the biological nitrification process in the presence of sulfide and organic matter.

The evaluation of the nitrification kinetics in the simultaneous presence of sulfide and organic matter using zeolite as improver was the main goal of this work. According to the sensitivity and collinearity analyses, five parameters were the most sensitive in the model, whose calibrated values were: = 0.02642 ± 0.
