Effect of enriched thermotolerant nitrifying bacteria inoculation on reducing nitrogen loss during sewage sludge composting

In the study, enriched thermotolerant nitrifying bacteria (TNB) was acquired from compost samples by domesticated cultivation under high temperature, and was inoculated into sewage sludge composting. The effect of inoculation on physical-chemical parameters, nitrogen loss and bacterial population involved in nitrogen transformation were determined. The results revealed that inoculation with enriched TNB improved the compost quality in terms of...
