Mathematical modeling and simulation of volatile reduced sulfur compounds oxidation in biotrickling filters
(Universidade da Coruña, 2007)[Abstract] The odour generated by industrial gaseous emissions causing nuisances generally is due to the presence of volatile reduced sulfur compounds (VRSC) Although a number of microorganisms are known for degrading VRSC, ... -
Menbrane inlet mass spectrometry (MIMS) as a tool for evaluating biological air filters in agriculture
(Universidade da Coruña, 2007)[Abstract] Membrane inlet mass spectrometry (MIMS) is presented as a new tool for monitoring the removal efficiency of biofilters with respect to odour compounds. The MIMS technique is based on the separation of volatile ... -

Microbial solvent regeneration in biotreatment of air contaminated by styrene
(Universidade da Coruña, 2007)[Abstract] In this study, the biodegradation of a styrene-polluted waste gas in a reactor containing 5 L of a biphasic mixture (10:90% v/v) of organic solvent (silicone oil) – water – biomass was investigated to establish ... -

Modeling of biomass accumulation and filter bed st6ructure change in biofilters for gaseous toluene removal
(Universidade da Coruña, 2007)[Abstract] In this study, a proper microbial growth model was established and analyzed to investigate the biomass accumulation process in biofilters. Four biofilters treating gaseous toluene were set up in parallel and ... -
Modeling of fungal biofilter for the abatement of hydropic VOCs
(Universidade da Coruña, 2007)[Abstract] This work describes the growth of filamentous fungi in biofilters for the degradation of hydrophobic VOCs. The study system was n-hexane and the fungus Fusarium solani B1. The system is mathematically described ... -
Modelling the absorption of styrene and acetone on activated carbon and perlite beds
(Universidade da Coruña, 2007)[Abstract] Experimental data from the Institute of Chemical Technology, Prague were analysed to derive some simple models of the rate of adsorption of either styrene or acetone from dilute air mixtures on sterile beds of ... -
Monitoring and characterization of bacterial populations of two biological air filters during the start up phase
(Universidade da Coruña, 2007)[Abstract] This study aimed to monitor and characterize bacterial populations of two biological air filters during their start up phase (four months). The main objective of this work was to assess the potentiality of a ... -
