To the University of Central Florida (UCF) Orlando, Fla., to continue
evaluation of the fate of nitrogen in bioreactor landfills by
conducting laboratory and field studies aimed at determining
nitrification and denitrification rates as a function of ammonia and
nitrate mass loadings, respectively, under different environmental
conditions to more accurately characterize nitrification and
denitrification in landfills and to provide the data necessary to
enable field-scale implementation. This is extended funding for a project that was
initially approved in April 2002. Nitrogen
investigation is expected to continue throughout the life of the
project with periodic updates.
