Decomposition of Aqueous 2,2,3,3-Tetra-Fluoro-Propanol by UV∕ O3 Process
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: 2,2,3,3-Tetra-fluoro-propanol (TFP) has been extensively used in compact disk-recordable and digital versatile disk-recordable manufacture and a large amount of wastewater containing the chemical is being discharged. This ...
Modeling Effects of Moisture on Adsorption Capacity of Activated Carbon for VOCs
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Activated carbon has long been used for removal or recovery of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from exhaust gas streams. Moisture content in the gas streams has been shown to be unfavorable for adsorption of VOCs; however, ...
Treatment of Styrene-Contaminated Airstream in Biotrickling Filter Packed with Slags
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper reports the result of studies using a biotrickling filter with blast-furnace slag packings (sizes = 2–4 cm and specific surface area = 120 m
Treatment of Methylethylketone in Air Stream by Biotrickling Filters
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper reports the result of studies using two biotrickling filters (BTFs) with wood and plastic packings, respectively, for treatment of methylethylketone (MEK) in an air stream. Effects of packing material, specific ...
Biotrickling Filtration of Volatile Organic Compounds in Vented Gases from Surface-Coating Operations
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The study used a bench-scale biotrickling filter packed with mixed plastic chips with specific surface area of 610±50 m2/m3 to test its performance for the removal of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) vented from ...
Degree of Hazardous Reduction of Secondary Aluminum Dross Using Ferrous Chloride
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study develops a method to depress the evolution of ammonia by blending aluminum dross samples with various doses of an aqueous ferrous chloride solution. Results show that ammonia evolutions can be reduced from
Heat Transfer Model for Regenerative Beds
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Regenerative catalytic oxidizers (RCO) are an economic and effective means of controlling volatile organic compounds with concentrations exceeding 1,200 mg/m
Treatment of Mixture of Sewage and Partially Treated Swine Wastewater by a Combination of UASB and Constructed Wetlands
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A system with a combination of upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor and constructed wetlands (CWs) has not yet been applied to river water polluted by both sewage and swine wastewater. In this study, a pilot ...
Applications of Low-Temperature Regenerative Thermal Oxidizers to Treat Volatile Organic Compounds
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A series of plant scale low temperature regenerative thermal oxidizers (LTRTOs) equipped with heating wires were constructed to treat volatile organic compounds (VOCs) laden gas streams. All regenerative beds were packed ...
