Definition of nitrify in English:

nitrify

verbnitrified, nitrifying, nitrifies ˈnʌɪtrɪfʌɪˈnaɪtrəˌfaɪ

[with object]Chemistry

Convert (ammonia or another nitrogen compound) into nitrites or nitrates.
a considerable amount of the ammonia so formed is nitrified

Derivatives

nitrifiable

adjective

Chemistry

nitrification

noun nʌɪtrɪfɪˈkeɪʃ(ə)nˌnaɪtrəfəˈkeɪʃ(ə)n

Chemistry

Current research has shown an increase in soil acidification through anthropogenic effects including acid precipitation and nitrification of ammoniacal fertilizers.
Example sentencesExamples
- Oxygen production by benthic microalgae enhanced rates of, and coupling between, nitrification and denitrification when ammonium was not limiting, resulting in significant loss of nitrogen from sediments as dinitrogen gas.
- Cultivation generally increases net nitrification through liming, aeration, enhanced ammonium levels, and lower immobilization.
- Other reactions unique to life, except at extremely high temperatures and pressures, include nitrogen fixation, nitrification and denitrification, sulphate and sulphur reduction, and methane formation.
- A dynamic model takes into consideration rapid chemical reactions, eg chemical weathering, nutrient uptake and nitrification.

Origin

Early 19th century: from French nitrifier.
