The response of free nitrous acid (FNA)-adapted poly-phosphate accumulating organisms (PAOs) to FNA inhibition under aerobic and anoxic conditions was studied. Anoxic P-uptake was 1–6 times more sensitive to the inhibition compared to aerobic P-uptake. The aerobic nitrite reduction rate increased wi...
