There are three ways to remove ammonia 1.) raise the pH to 10.5 and air strip it (can be expensive to adjust pH up then back down)  2.) use a zeolite like Clinoptilolite and absorb the ammonia then use the zeolite as fertilizer (this can be expensive in high flows).  3.) use biological removal using an aerated/anoxic process to convert ammonia - nitrite-nitrate. This assumes that increased nitrate levels are not a problem.
