Nitrogen is one of the most important contaminants present in wastewater. The most common alternative technologies for the treatment of waters containing this compound lay hold of the biochemical cycle of nitrogen, which is based on two processes, nitrification and denitrification. Among the parameters that influence the removal of nitrogen, we can mention the concentration of dissolved oxygen, carbon/nitrogen ratio, temperature, pH, and other relationships. This paper presents an overview of the biological nitrogen removal of water and the main parameters that influence the removal, emphasizing the simultaneous nitrification and denitrification process.
