Hello Dears,

we take some samples of treated domestical wastewater coming out from small wwtp, in some cases we have ammonia higher than the influent in the treatment plant (example 60mg/l in the influent, 120-170mg/l in the effluent).

Of course is not possible that the plant "produce" ammonia, so I would like to ask you a suggestion about how can this happen.

The sample are taken from the surface of a small tank of 150 liters, maybe can be possible that ammonia stratifies on the surface because of the lower density of ammonia solution then water.

Waiting for your response.

Thank you very much.
