Transient Behavior of Biofilters: Start-Up, Carbon Balances, and Interactions between PollutantsSource: Journal of Environmental Engineering:;1997:;Volume ( 123 ):;issue: 006Author:Marc A. Deshusses

Abstract: The work describes the aerobic biodegradation of volatile organic compound (VOC) mixtures from effluent air streams in laboratory-scale compost based biofilters. A rapid start-up of the system (3–5 d) was observed and 82% of the carbon in the influent pollutant (methyl ethyl ketone) was recovered as carbon dioxide in the exhaust air after this period. Biofilter performance and carbon dioxide production were also investigated during and after 0.5–1-h step inputs of 2–10 g m
