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 ... -
Combined biological and physicochemical waste-gas cleaning techniques
(Taylor & Francis, 2012-06)This review presents a general overview of physical, chemical and biological waste-gas treatment techniques such as adsorption, absorption, oxidation and biodegradation, focusing more extensively on combined processes. It ... -
Fungal biocatalysts in the biofiltration of VOC-polluted air
(Elsevier, 2004-09-30)Gas-phase biofilters used for the treatment of waste gases were originally packed with compost or other natural filter beds containing indigenous microorganisms. Over the past decade much effort has been made to develop ... -
Performance of a biofilter for the removal of high concentrations of styrene under steady and non-steady state conditions
(Elsevier, 2009-08-30)The performance of a laboratory scale perlite biofilter inoculated with a mixed culture was evaluated for gas phase styrene removal under various operating conditions. Experiments were carried out by subjecting the biofilter ... -
Removal of methanol from air in a low-pH trickling monolith bioreactor
(Elsevier, 2008-09)A novel ceramic monolith bioreactor colonized by a methanol-degrading culture was investigated in order to assess its suitability for waste gas treatment. The acidotolerant yeast Candida boidinii was identified as dominant ... -
Styrene removal from polluted air in one and two-liquid phase biotrickling filter: Steady and transient-state performance and pressure drop control
(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 ...
