Biological waste gas purification using membranes: opportunities and challenges
(Universidade da Coruña, 2007)
Proposing a new batch method for assessment of biological activity in H2S degrading biotrickling filters
(Universidade da Coruña, 2007)
[Abstract] The proposed batch method consists on measuring the sulfate production rate (SPR) at maximum rate of a set of polyurethane cubes extracted from an ongoing pilot-scale biotrickling filter (BTF) for hydrogen sulfide ...
Styrene degradation in perlite biofilter: the overall performance characteristics and dynamic response
(Universidade da Coruña, 2007)
[Abstract] Styrene’s degradation in a perlite biofilter including the long-term operation, dynamic response to step-changes in inlet concentration and non-use periods were tested. The study was performed in a bench-scale ...
A comparative study of the characteristics and physical behaviour of different packing materials commonly used in biofiltration
(Universidade da Coruña, 2007)
[Abstract] In this study, the characteristics and physical behaviour of 8 different packing materials were compared. The materials were selected according to previous works in the field of biofiltration including organic ...
Biofiltration systems for the treatment of waste gas from industrial plants
(Universidade da Coruña, 2007)
[Abstract] Bord na Móna Environmental Ltd. has gained valuable experience over the years with the installation of over 500 biofilters, primarily in municipal and industrial wastewater treatment plants, food processing and ...
Suitability of dust and bioaerosols from a pig stable as inoculum for biological air filters
(Universidade da Coruña, 2007)
[Abstract] Biofiltration for removing ammonia and odour compounds from ventilation air of pig stables is a promising approach. In order to reduce the time for starting up a well-functioning biofilter a good inoculum suited ...
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, ...
Treatmet of gas phase styrene in a biofilter under steady-state conditions
(Universidade da Coruña, 2007)
[Abstract] Preliminary studies on the performance of a laboratory scale perlite biofilter inoculated with a mixed culture taken from petrochemical refinery sludge was evaluated for gas phase styrene removal under various ...
Development of a reliable extraction method for the recovery of total genomic DNA from woodchip colonizing biofilm involved in gas biofiltration
(Universidade da Coruña, 2007)
[Abstract] This preliminary study focused on a critical step for the characterization of microbial ecosystem involved in biofiltration. Two aspects of nucleic acid recovery were explored: (i) cell dispersion (three methods ...
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 ...
