Performance evaluation of packing materials in the removal of hydrogen sulphide in gas-phase biofilters: Polyurethane foam, sugarcane bagasse, and coconut fibre

The main objective of this work was to investigate three packing materials (polyurethane foam, sugarcane bagasse, and coconut fibre) for biofiltration of a gaseous mixture containing hydrogen sulphide (H 2S). Mixed cultures were obtained from two sources, aerated submerged biofilters and activated s...

description The main objective of this work was to investigate three packing materials (polyurethane foam, sugarcane bagasse, and coconut fibre) for biofiltration of a gaseous mixture containing hydrogen sulphide (H 2S). Mixed cultures were obtained from two sources, aerated submerged biofilters and activated sludge, and were utilised as inoculums. Biofilters reached 100% removal efficiency after two days of operation. The empty bed residence time was 49 s for each of the biofilters. The reactors were operated simultaneously, and the inlet concentrations of H 2S varied between 184 and 644 ppmv during the long-term continuous operation of the biofilters (100 days). Average removal efficiencies remained above 99.3%, taking into consideration the entire period of operation. Average elimination capacities reached by the biofilters packed with polyurethane foam, coconut fibre, and sugarcane bagasse were in the range of 17.8–66.6; 18.9–68.8, and 18.7–72.9 g m −3 h −1, respectively. Finally, we concluded that the packing materials tested in this work are appropriate for the long-term biofiltration of hydrogen sulphide.
