  • Aerobic nitritation of ammonia and integrated anammox processes
    Patent number: 10584047
    Abstract: Processes are disclosed for the microbial nitritation of ammonia that attenuate the production of at least one of nitrate anion and nitrous oxide. The processes use an ME biocatalyst having a highly porous, hydrophilic polymeric structure with ammonia-oxidizing microorganisms substantially irreversibly retained therein. The processes are particularly useful for integration with anammox processes.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 2, 2017
    Date of Patent: March 10, 2020
    Assignee: MICROVI BIOTECH, INC.
    Inventors: Fatemeh Shirazi, Ameen Razavi, Allison Gregg, Casey McGrath
