Apparatus for measuring ammonia in biochemical processes

A method of determining denitrification time for at least a portion of wastewater in a wastewater treatment process including isolating a wastewater sample from the wastewater in the wastewater treatment process; detecting changes in fluorescence emitted by NADH from microorganisms contained within the sample; detecting changes in pH of the sample; analyzing the changes in NADH and pH and establishing that the sample is denitrified at a point where NADH shifts from a steady state or a decreasing state to an increasing state and, substantially simultaneously, the pH shifts from a steady state or an increasing state to a decreasing state; and calculating elapsed time between when the sample was taken and when the sample was denitrified to determine the denitrification time for the portion of the wastewater treatment process.

Enhanced denitrification process by monitoring and controlling

A method for measuring NO.sub.x in biochemical processes which includes a) isolating a liquid sample; b) adjusting the pH or ionic strength of the sample; c) recording mV values present in the sample after predetermined time periods; d) determining NO.sub.x concentrations in the sample at each of the predetermined time periods from the mV values; e) determining the difference in NO.sub.x in the sample from the NO.sub.x concentrations at each of the predetermined time periods; and f) determining the NO.sub.x concentration of the liquid sample from the difference in NO.sub.x and the predetermined time periods.

Method for measuring NO.sub.x in biochemical processes

A method of monitoring a microbiological process in a fluid supply involving isolation of a fluid sample from a fluid supply, measuring the pH of the fluid sample at selected time intervals, then calculating changes in pH, if any, to determine a pH variation rate for the sample. The dissolved oxygen in the sample is also measured at selected time intervals substantially synchronously with the pH measurements, and changes in dissolved oxygen, if any, are calculated to determine a biological oxygen consumption rate for the sample.

Method for monitoring and controlling biological activity in fluids

A method of monitoring a microbiological process in a fluid supply involving isolation of a fluid sample from a fluid supply, measuring the pH of the fluid sample at selected time intervals, then analyzing changes in pH, if any, to determine a pH production rate for the sample. Changes in pH production rate are then analyzed to determine when the pH production rate changes from a negative value to zero and/or to zero for the second time as an indicator of nitrification time.
