Inhibition of the metabolism of nitrifying bacteria by direct electric current

The nitrifying bacteria in activated sludge and biofilms consisting of the bacteria immobilized on polypropylene packing were subjected to an electric current via two electrodes. In activated sludge, the metabolism of nitrifying bacteria was inhibited when the applied current was over 2.5 A m^sup -2...
