Fungal biofiltration of α-pinene: Effects of temperature, relative humidity, and transient loads
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2007-02)
Over the past decade much effort has been made to develop new carrier materials, more performant biocatalysts, and new types of bioreactors for waste gas treatment. In biofilters fungal biocatalysts are more resistant to ...
Biofilter performance and characterization of a biocatalyst degrading alkylbenzene gases
(2009-06)
A biofilter treating alkylbenzene vapors was characterized for its optimal running conditions and kinetic parame-ters. Kinetics of the continuous biofilter were compared to batch kinetic data obtained with biofilm samples ...
Parameters affecting performance and modeling of biofilters treating alkylbenzene-polluted air
(Springer, 2001-03)
Both short-term and long-term biofiltration experiments were undertaken with a biofilter inoculated with a defined microbial consortium and treating an alkylbenzene mixture. The results obtained with such a biofilter in ...
Biofiltration of waste gases with the fungi Exophiala oligosperma and Paecilomyces variotii
(Springer, 2005-06)
Two biofilters fed toluene-polluted air were inoculated with new fungal isolates of either Exophiala oligosperma or Paecilomyces variotii, while a third bioreactor was inoculated with a defined consortium composed of both ...
Experimental and neural model analysis of styrene removal from polluted air in a biofilter
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2009-07)
BACKGROUND: Biofilters are efficient systems for treating malodorous emissions. The mechanism involved during pollutant transfer and subsequent biotransformation within a biofilm is a complex process. The use of artificial ...
Biofiltration of waste gases containing a mixture of formaldehyde and methanol
(Springer, 2004-04)
Several biofilters and biotrickling filters were used for the treatment of a mixture of formaldehyde and methanol; and their efficiencies were compared. Results obtained with three different inert filter bed materials (lava ...
Development of a Novel Monolith-Bioreactor for the Treatment of VOC-polluted Air
(Taylor & Francis, 2006)
A novel bioreactor packed with ceramic monolith colonized by a toluene-degrading culture was investigated in order to assess its suitability for waste gas treatment. Operational parameters that were considered included ...
Biodegradation of toluene by the new fungal isolates Paecilomyces variotii and Exophiala oligosperma Biotechnology. 2005;32(1):33-7
(Springer, 2005-02)
Two new fungal strains, namely Paecilomyces variotii and Exophiala oligosperma, were isolated on toluene as the sole carbon and energy source, mineralizing the substrate into carbon dioxide. Fungal strains isolated so far ...
Hydrodynamic behaviour and comparison of technologies for the removal of excess biomass in gas-phase biofilters
(Elsevier, 2004)
The hydrodynamic behaviour of a biofilter fed toluene and packed with an inert carrier was evaluated on start-up and after long-term operation, using both methane and styrene as tracers in Residence Time Distribution ...
Inert filter media for the biofiltration of waste gases – characteristics and biomass control
(Springer, 2002)
Soil biofilters and related systems based onthe use of natural filter beds have been usedfor several years for solving specific airpollution problems. Over the past decade,significant improvements have been brought tothese ...
