## Abstract The biofilter process is a relatively new technology that has been proven to be more costโeffective than traditional technologies for treating many kinds of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from waste gases. Pentane and styrene mixtures are commonly encountered in the manufacture of po

In the work reported here, selected aspects of the dynamic behavior of biofilters for waste air treatment have been investigated. Emphasis was placed on transient state elimination of mixtures of methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) and methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK) vapors and on explanation of the observed ph
BACKGROUND: In this study, the biofiltration of air streams laden with monochlorobenzene (MCB) vapours was investigated using a trickling biofilter operated co-currently. The device was filled with ceramic material and inoculated with an acclimated microbial culture. A neutralization process was car
## Abstract **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 neural networks to model the performance of biofilters using
Hollow-fiber membranes were prepared to remove volatile organic vapors (VOCs) from a nitrogen or air stream. Conditions were found to spin hollow fibers of high performance for the removal of VOCs. The effect of temperature on the permeation of nitrogen gas and acetone vapor was studied. It was foun
## Abstract **BACKGROUND:** An emerging innovation for the treatment of polluted air consists in using a liquidโsolid biphasic system, in which the sequestering phase contains inert polymer beads. The different polymers tested here for this purpose were; Hytrel^ยฎ^ G3548L, Hytrel^ยฎ^ G4078W, styrene
