The biochemical reaction mechanism and kinetics of partial nitrification
短程硝化的生化机理及其动力学

The biochemical reaction mechanism and kinetics of partial nitrification are the foundation of biological nitrogen removal and they are important for biological denitrification process design and proper operation. The complex biochemical reaction of partial nitrification is described from the microbiology and stoichiometry on the basis of the electron flow (energy production) pathway. By these, we know that partial nitrification involves a series of complex biochemical reactions concerning many intermediates, accompanied with electron flow (energy production). At the same time, it is the synthesis of two reactions-ammonia-N utilization and ammonia-oxidizing bacterial growth which need further study. Integral and differential methods are adapted to obtain the values of the kinetics constants.
