An Investigation of Nitrification Predictors and Factors in Two Full-Scale Drinking Water Distribution Systems

The biologically-mediated process of nitrification can occur in chloraminated drinking water distribution systems. In this process, ammonia is oxidized to nitrite by ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and archaea (AOA). In complete nitrification, nitrite is further converted to nitrate by nitrite-oxi...
