Abstract: Soluble nitrogen-containing species are removed from contaminated water by contacting the contaminated water with aluminum oxide particles in a reactor and adding sufficient sulfamic acid to the reactor to adjust the pH of the contaminated water to 5 or below to create treated water. The treated water, which has less of the soluble nitrogen-containing species than the contaminated water, is removed from the reactor.
