  • Investigation of the reduction of nitrous oxide emissions in wastewater treatment plants using N2O-breathing bacteria (NBr)
  • Use of NBr under wastewater conditions using laboratory-scale reactors
  • Implementation of NrB in wastewater treatment systems

Research project:

Reduction of nitrous oxide emissions from wastewater treatment systems using nitrous oxide-respiring bacteria (DFG project): Investigation of different N2O-respiring bacteria and their applicability to reduce N2O emissions from wastewater treatment systems to identify the most suitable NrB and application of these organisms under realistic wastewater conditions using short and long-term experiments in laboratory reactors
