Objectif

The main objective of the project is the development and design of a sate-of-art compact installation for the removal of nitrogen (ammonia and nitrate) from water, based upon biological well know nitrification-gentrification processes, easy to use and cost effective, to be tested in the specific case fish-farming (aquiculture) or pig livestock farms. The project involves a column/filter reactor design step (development of new solid bacterial supports), and a selection/optimisation of bacterial strains suitable for the nitrification/gentrification operation.
