Zusammenfassung
Die Einleitung von stickstoffhaltigen Abfällen durch die Industrie in Luft und Wasser sowie die Deponierung fester, Stickstoffverbindungen enthaltender Abfälle können zu erhöhten Nitratgehalten in der Umwelt führen. Dies geschieht entweder durch die direkte Einleitung von Nitraten oder durch die Umwandlung anderer stickstoffhaltiger Abfälle zu Nitraten durch physikalische oder mikrobielle Prozesse in der Biosphäre. So wie die Quellen der stickstoffhaltigen Abfälle sind auch die Arten der eingeleiteten Verbindungen vielfältig (Robertson & Kuenen, 1993). Die Photoindustrie produziert beträchtliche Mengen an ammonthiosulfathaltigen Abwässern, während eine Vielzahl anderer Industrien ammoniakreiche Abfälle produzieren, die in Aufbereitungsanlagen zu Nitraten umgewandelt werden. Durch die Erdölindustrie und die Verbrennung fossiler Brennstoffe werden große Mengen stickstoffhaltiger Verbindungen in die Biosphäre eingebracht. Ironischerweise kommt es dabei vor, daß Prozesse, die die Einleitung des einen Schadstoffes in die Umwelt herabsetzen sollen, vereinzelt die Zufuhr eines anderen Schadstoffes erhöhen. Ein gutes Beispiel dafür sind Rauchgasentschwefelungsanlagen, mit deren Hilfe die Freisetzung von Schwefel in die Umwelt herabgesetzt wird, während dabei gleichzeitig Abwässer mit hohen Nitratgehalten (150–300 mg N l1) entstehen (Holm Kristensen & Jepsen, 1991).
