Nitratammonifizierung im Boden mit Abwasserverrieselung

Nitrate Reduction to Ammonium in a Soil with Wastewater Irrigation Flooding with wastewaters including 48 mg/l NH-N, 15 mg/l organic N and 63 mg/l K¹⁵NO-N has led to strong nitrogen losses by denitrification from a sandy Cambisol. Beside this ¹⁵NH was formed also. Possible reasons of the nitrate reduction to ammonium are discussed and conclusions for practical wastewater irrigation are drawn.
