Bioremediation
Denitrification is the microbial process that converts nitrates and nitrites into nitrogen gas or, to a lesser extent, nitrous oxide, effectively removing nitrogen from the soil and releasing it into the atmosphere. This process plays a critical role in the nitrogen cycle, helping to mitigate the accumulation of excess nitrates in environments such as water bodies and soil, which can lead to eutrophication and other ecological issues.
congrats on reading the definition of Denitrification. now let's actually learn it.
