that nitratcreduces to ammonia in high yield atacoppercathode inaqueousacidic perchlorate and sulphate media. At pH below 2, well formed reduction waves are observed; the process is irreversible but in the plateau region it is mass transfer controlled. AbovepH 3, no reduction occurs. It is also shown that chloride, bromide and iodideions inhibit the reduction causing the halfwave potential for nitrate to be shifted to more negative potentials.
