AB  - The study presented the method for isolating the heterotrophic nitrifiers and the 
      characterization of heterotrophic nitrification. Continuous tests via a membrane 
      bioreactor (MBR) were operated under the controlled conditions to proliferate the 
      nitrifiers. Heterotrophic nitrifying bacteria were isolated from the system in 
      which the efficiency of total nitrogen (TN) removal was up to 80%. Since no 
      autotrophic ammonium and nitrite oxidizers could be detected by fluorescence in 
      situ hybridization (FISH), oxidized-N production was unlikely to be catalyzed by 
      autotrophic nitrifiers during the heterotrophic nitrifiers' isolation in this 
      study. The batch test results indicate that the isolated heterotrophic bacteria 
      were able to nitrify. After 3 weeks incubation, the efficiencies of the COD 
      removal by the three isolated bacterial strains B1, B2, and B3 were 52.6%, 71.7%, 
      and 77.7%, respectively. The efficiencies of the TN removal by B1, B2, and B3 
      were 35.6%, 61.2% and 68.7%, respectively.
