A » Denitrification is a microbial process where nitrate (NO₃⁻) is reduced to nitrogen gas (N₂), thus removing nitrogen from ecosystems. This process is crucial in water purification, preventing excess nitrate pollution. Bacteria such as Pseudomonas, Paracoccus, and Bacillus are primarily responsible for denitrification, functioning under anaerobic conditions to facilitate this conversion. Their activity is vital for maintaining ecological balance and preventing eutrophication in aquatic environments.
