Zusammenfassung:The invention concerns a device and a method for removing nitrogen compounds from an aqueous liquid containing nitrogen oxides (NOx) and/or nitrates (NO-_3). It comprises an electro-chemical cell (10) with a cathode and an anode and a current source applied thereto. According to the invention, the cell is divided by a cation selective membrane into a cathode compartment (2) to be filled with said liquid, and an anode compartment (3) to be filled with an anolyte containing an aqueous solution of an alkali or hydrogen halide such as sodium bromide or sodium chloride, and the membrane (1) is constituted by a microporous fabric of PTFE.
