Emerging contaminants (ECs) are causing negative effects on the environment and even on people, so their removal has become a priority worldwide. Adsorption and the associated technologies where this process occurs (filtration/biofiltration) have gained ...

It was demonstrated that the daily monitoring of electrical conductivity (EC) of scrubbing water can easily be used to determine the performance of biotrickling filters treating ammonia (NH3) emissions, generated by livestock facilities. Two different me...

It is emphasized that a generalized relationship can be used to predict the ionic nitrogen concentration (i.e., sum of ammonium NH4+, nitrite NO2- and nitrate NO3-) of the scrubbing liquid in a biotrickling filter treating ammonia emissions by measuring ...

Tertiary wastewater treatment could provide a reliable source of water for reuse. Amongst these types of wastewater treatment, deep-bed filtration of secondary effluents can effectively remove particles and organic matter; however, NH4+ and NO2- are not ...

The removal of high concentrations of 1-butanol in an air stream was evaluated with a biotrickling filter for potential application to an industrial off-gas. Experiments were conducted on a laboratory-scale system, packed with perlite, in a co-current do...
