Shortcomings of current process
1. Activated carbon adsorption
2. Direct combustion
3. Catalytic oxidation
4. Ozone oxidation
1. Inconsistent efficiency
Efficiency sharply drops when it works for long time.
It happens as nutrients for microorganisms are insufficient.
2. Unequal growth of microorganisms
Efficiency decreases, hard to handle when factors change suddenly
3. Investigation
⑴ What is biofilter?
- Technology processed gas pollutants by biological methods, immobilized on porous carrier by the metabolic activity of microorganisms decompose into harmless substances
- Depending on the configuration and operation of the device, it can classify as Biofilter, Biological Trikling Filter, Bioscrubber and Air Lift Bioreactor
Example of use of Biof
