Found a resurch lab in Los Almos that are resurching into Nitrate removal (100%) from water with any parameters and that leaves water safe for any perpous including fishkeeping

This is the equation;

NO3 + Zn +H2NSO3H = N2 + SO4 + Zn + 2H2O

Think it goes the nitrate rich water is mixed with the compound (H2NSO3H) in a chemical reacter where the N2 is relised into the atmospher this is passed into a Electroyic cell where the compound is attracted to the Zn rods and the Denitarfied water is relised!!

Pritty cool suff if you ask me
 
Sounds like an over engineered way of doing the same thing as a reed bed.

As the saying goes: "An engineer will find 100 different ways of putting a nail into a piece of wood, of which none will be as cheap or as easy as using a hammer."
