Example
High concentration nitrogen in natural water body had been a dramatic water quality problem all over the world [1]. During the past decade, many researches showed that high concentration nitrogen caused eutrophication [2], effected on reproduction of mangrove forest and stimulated pH balance causing aquatic life [3]. In Thailand, there were many major nitrogen sources such as agricultural area, domestic area, commercial area and farming area causing environmental problems. Because Thailand was agricultural country, the major nitrogen source was farming area [4]. Exceed nitrogen from fertilizer and animal feces were released to natural water source and accumulated at the bottom. Due to this topic, a lot of studies try to find the best solution to reduce exceed nitrogen including; physical process chemical process and biological process [5].
Square brackets must only indicate the position of the reference. Must not affect the content described by the author.
