Abstract
A method of reducing a concentration of a nitrogen oxide, the method comprising: contacting a microorganism with a nitrogen oxide-containing sample to reduce the concentration of the nitrogen oxide in the sample, wherein the contacting comprises contacting the microorganism with Fe(II)(L)-NOx in a bioreactor, wherein the Fe(II)(L)-NOx is a complex in which a chelating agent, Fe2+, and NOx are chelated, wherein L is the chelating agent, and wherein NOx is a nitrogen oxide ligand.

A method of reducing a concentration of a nitrogen oxide, the method comprising:
- contacting a microorganism with a nitrogen oxide-containing sample to reduce the concentration of the nitrogen oxide in the sample,
- wherein the contacting comprises contacting the microorganism with Fe(II)(L)-NOx in a bioreactor, wherein the bioreactor is a plug flow reactor comprising a plurality of carriers,
- wherein the Fe(II)(L)-NOx is a complex in which a chelating agent, Fe2+, and NOx are chelated,
- wherein L is the chelating agent, and
- wherein NOx is a nitrogen oxide ligand.
