Investigations on the removal of hydrophobic odorous volatile organic compounds by biotrickling filtration monitored with electronic nose

Abstract

The presented paper presents the results of research on the removal of selected hydrophobic volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from their mixture with air by means of a trickled-bed biofiltration. The efficiency of the removal of toluene and α-pinene, as model VOCs, in a three-section biotrickling filter is evaluated using GCFID and additionally monitored with an electronic nose. The results show that the removal of the model mixture of VOCs occurs with a satisfactory efficiency i.e. exceeding 80% within 21 days after the system startup when ceramic Rashig rings inoculated with Candida species are packed in a biofilter and the trickling liquid is enriched with a surface active substance.
