Retrofitting of an Industrial Chemical Scrubber into a Biotrickling Filter: Performance at a Gas Contact Time below 1 s

The present work provides a description and an assessment of the conversion of an odor-treating industrial chemical scrubber into a biotrickling filter and of its startup and operation during 5 months at an empty bed residence time of about 0.9 s . The system treats a gas flow rate of around 50,000...

Zusammenfassung:The present work provides a description and an assessment of the conversion of an odor-treating industrial chemical scrubber into a biotrickling filter and of its startup and operation during 5 months at an empty bed residence time of about 0.9 s . The system treats a gas flow rate of around 50,000 m3 ∕h , with average concentrations of volatile organic compounds, N H3 and H2 S , of around 10, 2, and
