Abstract: The review of the latest literature data related to the biodegradation of volatile organic compounds and the removal of odors in trickle-bed bioreactors were performed. The basic parameters that affect the course of the process and determine...

Abstract: The efficiency of the process of air purification from the mixture of two volatile organic compounds (styrene and p-xylene) was experimentally tested. The experiment was carried out for 248 days in a pilot installation of a trickle-bed bioreactor,...

Abstract: Basic types of airlift reactors are presented and hydrodynamic regimes of their operation are described. Influence of some parameters (gas and liquid velocity, reactor geometry and liquid properties) on gas holdup in airlift reactor is discussed....

Abstract: Biofiltration of airstream contaminated by hydrophilic Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) proceeds in a higher yield than for hydrophobic VOC. Improvement of the process for hydrophobic VOC is possible by addition a hydrophobic phase to bioreactor....

Abstract: Critical review of literature data concerning problem of xylenes removal from air by means of fixed bed bioreactor is presented. The influence of some important parameters (inlet pollutant load, residence time, liquid mass flow rate, presence...
