What are the microorganisms involved in the denitrification process?
Denitrifying bacteria exist in the form of biofilms; there are no ideal indicator organisms, and they are generally difficult to distinguish using a microscope.
They are a type of chemoheterotrophic facultative anaerobic microorganisms
It refers to the biochemical process by which bacteria reduce the nitrogen (N) in *ao nitrates (NO3−) to nitrogen gas (N2) through a series of intermediate compounds (NO2−, NO, N2O). Bacteria involved in this process are collectively referred to as denitrifiers.
