Denitrification of a landfill leachate with high nitrate concentration in an anoxic rotating biological contactor

The denitrification performance of a lab-scale anoxic rotating biological contactor (RBC) using landfill leachate with high nitrate concentration was evaluated. Under a carbon to nitrogen ratio (C/N) of 2, the reactor achieved N-NO3 − removal efficiencies above 95% for concentrations up to 100 mg N-...
