Resumen
The effect of some important operation parameters, as pH, pollutant load and composition of the nutrient media, on the biodegradation of a mixture of formaldehyde and methanol in a gas-phase biotrickling filter was studied. pH proved to affect the degradation of both compounds at moderately acidic values. Replacing ammonium with nitrate as nitrogen source in the liquid solution led to a slight decrease in performance, though this difference was not really significant. A slight decrease in the elimination rate was also observed when reducing the N–NO3− concentration to 60% of its original value. No interactions between the two pollutants were found under our working conditions.
