摘要：In this study, viability of the autotrophic bacteria was investigated in a denitrification process. Bench-scale bioelectrochemical denitrification with separated chambers reactor were applied for nitrate reduction from synthetic wastewater. The influences of current density, retention time, mixing on viability of autotrophic denitrifying bacteria were investigated in the bioelectrochemical reactor (BER). It was found that by increasing the current density up to 8 mA/cm2, nitrate reduction rate was increased. At higher current density (24 - 32 mA/cm2), denitrification rate due to excess of hydrogen gas on cathode surface and accumulation of nitrite, was decreased. Low current density (
