AB  - The aim of this work was to enhance the efficiency of a bioelectrochemical 
      denitrification process using a biocathode of carbon felt (CF)/multiwall carbon 
      nanotube (MWCNT) composite. The efficiency of the bioelectrochemical 
      denitrification was assessed as the function of various operational parameters, 
      such as ORP, pH, current density, retention time and nitrate concentrations. 
      Scanning electron microscope (SEM) images of the biocathode surfaces revealed a 
      homogeneous distribution of the MWCNT on the CF matrix. Optimum ORP, pH, current 
      density and retention time were -100 mV, 7.0, 15 mA/cm2 and 6 h, respectively. 
      The highest nitrate removal efficiency at the optimum condition was 92.7% for 
      CF/MWCNT. The reduction time for achieving the nitrate standard using CF/MWCNT 
      was 4 h. It is proposed that the prepared nanocomposite will have the best 
      biocathode properties in the bioelectrochemistry denitrification experiments.
