• Completely autotrophic nitrogen removal over nitrite in one single reactor. (2002, background): “So far, Planctomycete-like bacteria, capable of Anammox, have been clearly shown to be present in a number of reactors [1,7–10].”
• Startup of reactors for anoxic ammonium oxidation: experiences from the first full-scale anammox reactor in Rotterdam. (2007, background): “…concentration of nitrite during the startup is of crucial importance for growth: a too low amount will result in substrate limitation and thus slower growth, while concentrations above 50–150 mg-N/l can already lead to inhibition (Strous et al., 1999b; Egli et al., 2001; Dapena-Mora et al., 2007).”
• Anaerobic Metabolism: Linkages to Trace Gases and Aerobic Processes (2003, background): “However, two organisms have been enriched from wastewater treatment plants that perform the anammox reaction (Egli et al., 2001; Strous et al., 1999a; Toh et al., 2002), and aspects of their physiology have been described (Strous et al.”
• Full-scale partial nitritation/anammox experiences--an application survey. (2014, background): “Studies with Ca. Kuenenia stuttgartiensis by Egli et al. (2001) showed that anammox was only inhibited at nitrite concentrations higher than 182 mg-N l 1.”
• Autotrophic Ammonia Removal Processes: Ecology to Technology (2012, background): “Candidatus “Kuenenia stuttgartiensis” has similar pH and temperature optima, which makes them suitable for application in tropical conditions (Egli et al., 2001).”

• Anammox and denitrification in the oxygen minimum zone of the eastern South Pacific (2012, background): “If the enzymes had been present the processes would probably have become active once O2 concentrations were lowered in the experimental setup, as often seen in experiments with short-term exposure to oxygen for both anammox (Strous et al. 1997; Egli et al. 2001) and denitrification (Bonin et al.”
• Characterization of the microbial community and nitrogen transformation processes associated with moving bed bioreactors in a closed recirculated mariculture system (2003, neutral): “Unlike others studies where anammox bacteria was enriched by repeated incubation of samples with ammonia and nitrite ( Egli et al., 2001 ) ,n o attempt was made to enhance the anammox bacteria in our system.”
