The removal of toluene from an experimental gas-stream was studied in an industrial biofilter filled with poplar wood bark. Toluene degradation, approximately 85% through the operating period, resulted in low levels of toluene in the off-gas effluent. For a toluene load of 6.7 g m -3 h -1 the elimin

The effects of successive mixing (homogenization) of packing material (peat), with or without water addition, on the removal of toluene vapors in a biofilter were studied. Over a period of 50 days, an increase in the Elimination Capacity (EC) of approximately 240% was obtained by successive mixing a

## Abstract In this work, the removal of monochlorobenzene (CB) vapors from air was studied, for the first time, in a non‐inoculated, laboratory‐scale, aerobic biofilter. The influence of three parameters on the bioprocess has been evaluated: the rate of nitrogen supplied to the bed, the inlet conc
