Biofiltration is an established technology for the removal of volatile organic compounds
(VOCs) from waste gas streams due to its cost-effectiveness, process safety, and …

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are significant atmospheric pollutants that cause
environmental and health risks. Waste gases polluted with multiple VOCs often need to be …

This study focused on the measurement of BTEX (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and
xylene) concentrations in the air of various regions and indoor-outdoor environments in …

Hydrophilic VOCs (volatile organic compounds) were applied to explore their positive
influence on the elimination of the single hydrophobic VOC in biotrickling filters (BTFs) …

The emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into the atmosphere causes negative
environmental and health effects. Biofiltration is known to be an efficient and cost-effective …

Bioactive coatings are envisaged as a promising biotechnology to tackle the emerging
problem of indoor air pollution. This solution could cope with the low concentrations, the …

International contracts to restrict emissions of climate-relevant gases, and thus global
warming, also require a critical reconsideration of technologies for treating municipal …

The aim of this work was to study the performance of a compost/ceramic bead biofilter (6: 4
v/v) for the removal of gas-phase toluene and xylene at different inlet loading rates (ILR) …

The application of rhamnolipids in a fungal-cultured biotrickling filter (BTF) has a significant
impact on toluene removal. Two BTFs were used; BTF-A, a control bed, and BTF-B fed with …

Biotechnologies are a feasible alternative for indoor air pollutant abatement. Among
biotechnologies, bioactive coatings consist of microorganisms embedded in polymeric …
