Factors Influencing the Nitrification Efficiency of Fluidized Bed Filters With a Plastic Bead Medium

Nitrification performance of three, fluidized-bed filters was investigated. Each filter contained 10 L of plastic bead medium (near neutral specific gravity and 2-4 mm diameter and length) and was loaded under conditions of various flow rates and ammonia levels. Bead settled depth and biofilter diam...
