- Ammonia must be eliminated from wastewater before it can be reused, recycled, or discharged. Describe the three major steps that are used to convert harmful ammonia into a harmless derivative. Your answer must be specific and include any appropriate chemical formulas or names of chemical or biological reagents. Mention, when appropriate, the toxicity of any of the components or how their production can get in the way of efficiently eliminating ammonia from wastewater.arrow_forwardEnzyme b. Binding: Electrostatic Forces Substrates bind to receptors and enzymes through non-covalent interactions (intermolecular forces – IMF). Below is a cartoon of a part of a ligand or substrate interacting with an enzyme (blue line). There are two aspartic acid side chains of the enzyme that are interacting with the substrate (dashed lines). Identify the intermolecular forces.
