Please note this is a comparison between Version 1 by Liana Kemmu and Version 3 by Catherine Yang.

Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a greenhouse gas contributing to ozone layer depletion and climate

change. Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) geconeratribute significant amounts of grely to the global anthropogenic

N2O emissionhouse gs. The main factors affecting N2O emissions asre thes, including carb dissolved oxygen concentration

(DO), dthe nioxide, methane and nitrous oxide. Nitrous oxitrite accumulation, the rapidly changing process conditions, the substrate composition

ande (COD/N2O) ratis an important greenho, the pH, and the temperature. Low DO in the nitrification process results in higher
