Abstract:Biomanipulation is reliable method for treating volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in polluted air. The performances of two biofilters in the removal of toluene vapors from air stream were compared. Two identical biofilters designed in parallel configuration were operated in lab-scale for 20 days; one of them was filled by sterilized media (compost and wood charcoal 2:1 v/v) and another was filled by the same media inoculated with Pseudomonas putida PTCC 1694, as a native strain. Moreover, batch tests were perf… Show more
