Laboratory scale studies were conducted in an up-flow anoxic bioreactor using synthetic fertilizer
wastewater for ascertaining the denitrification efficiency. The performance of the reactor was compared using ethanol
and topioca starch as the carbon source. The initial N03-N concentrations (50-250 mg/L) and hydraulic retention time
(HRT, 12-24 h) were varied to evaluate the COD and N03-N removal. The results from this study shows that ethanol
gave very good denitrification efficiency (78-98%) compared to topioca starch (68-96%).
