Water, the origin of life, is the necessary component of our daily life. As the progress of modern industry and life, especially in petrochemical engineering and agriculture, large amount of sewage which contains inorganic nitrogen has been produced. It is the chief culprit which leads to the red tide.
Various kinds of means have been developed to dispose nitrite and ammonium which are the main contaminants of this type of effluent. One of them is anaerobic ammonium oxidation bacteria (anammox) which can convert the fomite in the water into nitrogen.
NH4+ + NO2- → N2 + 2H2O, ΔG° = -357 kJ/mol
