Abstract
Abstract he rates of ammonia and nitrite removal were determined in terms of the pH, temperature and initial nitrite or ammonia concentration. The ammonia removal was found to follow fairly well a first‐order oxidation kinetics with a constant activation energy and exponential pH‐dependent frequency factor. But a zero‐order oxidation kinetics with constant activation energy and frequency factor described well the nitrite removal. The effect of initial ammonia concentration on the ammonia removal was not as strong as those of the pH and temperature. But the effect of initial nitrite concentration on the nitrite removal was rather significant.
