Glycerol used for denitrification in full-scale wastewater treatment plants: nitrous oxide emissions, sludge acclimatization, and other insights

Glycerol is commonly employed for denitrification purposes in full-scale wastewater treatment. In non-acclimatized biomass, the glycerol is very inefficient resulting in a high C/N ratio and low-standard denitrification rates. The acclimatization is driven by the microbial enrichment of Saccharimona...
