Characterization of absorbent polymers for the removal of volatile hydrophobic pollutants from air
Montes, María; Daugulis, Andrew J.; Veiga, María Carmen; Kennes, Christian (Wiley-Blackwell, 2011-01)An emerging innovation for the treatment of polluted air consists in using a liquid–solid biphasic system, in which the sequestering phase contains inert polymer beads. The different polymers tested here for this purpose ... -
Effect of oil concentration and residence time on the biodegradation of α-pinene vapours in two-liquid phase suspended-growth bioreactors
Montes, María; Veiga, María Carmen; Kennes, Christian (Elsevier, 2012-02-20)Recently, research on the use of binary aqueous–organic liquid phase systems for the treatment of polluted air has significantly increased. This paper reports the removal of α-pinene from a waste air stream in a continuous ... -
Equilibrium constants of triethanolamine in major seawater salts
Brandariz, Isabel; Castro, P.; Montes, María; Penedo Blanco, Francisco José; Sastre de Vicente, Manuel (Elsevier, 2006-12)Acid–base equilibrium constants of triethanolamine (TEA) have been determined by potentiometric titrations with a glass electrode, at 25 °C. Ionic strength was kept constant with only one electrolyte (using one of these ... -
Styrene removal from polluted air in one and two-liquid phase biotrickling filter: Steady and transient-state performance and pressure drop control
Rene, Eldon R.; Montes, María; Veiga, María Carmen; Kennes, Christian (Elsevier, 2011-07)A Sporothrix variecibatus-inoculated biotrickling filter (BTF) was examined for styrene removal, without and with the addition of silicone oil, at different empty bed residence times. The highest elimination capacities ... -
Two-liquid-phase mesophilic and thermophilic biotrickling filters for the biodegradation of α-pinene
Montes, María; Veiga, María Carmen; Kennes, Christian (Elsevier, 2010-12)α-Pinene biodegradation was evaluated in mesophilic and thermophilic biotrickling filters. The potential of silicone oil for enhancing the removal was evaluated too, at both temperatures. Performance was studied at empty ...
