| Abstract | Free nitrous acid (FNA) has been identified to be a ubiquitous inhibitor of a wide range of microorganisms, including bacteria involved in wastewater treatment. The FNA-induced inhibition on the anoxic (nitrite as electron acceptor) metabolism of denitrifying poly-phosphate accumulating organisms (DPAOs) was investigated using sludge from a sequencing batch reactor performing carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus removal from synthetic wastewater. We found that FNA had a much stronger inhibitory effect on phosphorus (P) uptake and glycogen production than on poly-β-hydroxyalkanoate degradation and nitrite reduction. The intracellular adenosine triphosphate levels decreased sharply during the FNA incubation, and the decreasing rates were positively correlated with increasing FNA concentrations. The electron transport activity of DPAOs when exposed to FNA displayed a similar trend. Further, at FNA concentrations above 0.044 mg HNO2-N/L, the anaerobic metabolism of DPAOs was initiated despite of the presence of nitrite, as evidenced by the release of phosphorus and the consumption of glycogen. DPAO metabolism did not recover completely from FNA inhibition in the subsequent FNA-free environment. The recovery rate depended on the concentration of FNA applied in the previous anoxic period. These results suggest that the inhibitory effects are diverse and may be attributable to different mechanisms operating simultaneously. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
