Effect of key parameters on the removal of formaldehyde and methanol in gas-phase biotrickling filters
(Elsevier, 2006-12)
The effect of some important operation parameters, as pH, pollutant load and composition of the nutrient media, on the biodegradation of a mixture of formaldehyde and methanol in a gas-phase biotrickling filter was studied. ...
Kinetics of inhibition in the biodegradation of monoaromatic hydrocarbons in presence of heavy metals
(Elsevier Sciencie lted, 2001-06)
The toxicity and inhibitory effects of heavy metals such as cadmium, nickel and zinc on alkylbenzene removal were evaluated with a Bacillus strain. The kinetics of alkylbenzene biodegradation with the different heavy metals ...
Bioprocesses for air pollution control
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2009)
Bioprocesses have been developed as relatively recent alternatives to conventional, non-biological technologies, for waste gas treatment and air pollution control in general. This paper reviews major biodegradation processes ...
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 ...
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 ...
