Wastewater Opportunities for Denitrifying Anaerobic Methane Oxidation

Denitrifying anaerobic methane oxidation (DAMO) can concurrently reduce methane emissions and nitrogen levels in aquatic environments, but how useful is this process? We propose the use of DAMO-based technology as a tool for sustainably operating wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs).
