Nitrate ion exceeding its standard level in surface water bodies contributing to eutrophication and ecosystem degradation is a major concern. This study reveals that wastewater of Urea fertilizer factory is the point source of nitrate present in surface water body and evaluates the effectiveness of a denitrification-based treatment plant as a sustainable remediation approach. The research emphasizes the need for industrial wastewater management and proposes denitrification as a viable, eco-friendly solution to mitigate nitrate-induced eutrophication in aquatic ecosystems.
