Abstract

An experimental investigation was carried out in a packed-bed, fixed-film biological reactor to study the effect of arsenic (trivalent), chromium (hexavalent), and fluoride on biological nitrification processes. The data were correlated according to a zero-order, noncompetitive inhibition model, expressed in terms of degree of inhibition, and inhibitor concentration, and the inhibitor coefficient.
