Degradation Kinetics for Organic Nitrogen in Bioelectrochemical Systems toward Ammonia Recovery

. Kinetic analysis of the Raman data revealed that glutamic acid degradation to be complex and not singularly ordered in either operation mode, requiring further quantitative study. This work provides vital insight into the kinetics of degradation within BES toward a more complete understanding of anode-chamber processes. Such insight can be useful in guiding further research into BES as resource recovery mechanisms and supporting BES adaptation as manure treatment processes focused on the recovery of nutrient-rich, value-added fertilizer products.
