| description abstract | The goal of this research was to elaborate an effective and economical treatment system to eliminate nitrates from a large marine basin at the Aquarium du Québec. Several configurations of an autotrophic denitrification system using elemental sulfur were tested. Results showed that inoculums taken from various environments (soil, sewage sludge, wetland, pig manure, marine sediment) could be used to prepare denitrifying microbial cultures for a marine environment. Subsequent trials using a continuous-flow configuration with columns containing sulfur granules showed that a hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 16–19 h allowed the removal of nearly all of the nitrates present in the water ( | |
