Journal ArticleDOI
Biological purification of exhaust air using fixed bacterial monocultures
TL;DR: In this paper, the results of basic investigations on reactions and process engineering in the biological purification of exhaust air in a trickle-bed reactor were presented, where the biocatalysts used were pollutant-specific bacterial monocultures, which were immobilized on various carriers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Purification of exhaust air containing organic pollutants in a trickle-bed bioreactor.
TL;DR: Experiments on the purification of exhaust air containing organic pollutants by a new biological process using a trickle-bed reactor using a tube bundle (honeycomb tube) to ensure continuous operation of the reactor with reduced conversion and pressure loss.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exhaust gas purification using biocatalysts (fixed bacteria monocultures) — the influence of biofilm diffusion rate (O2) on the overall reaction rate
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of O2 and substrate (pollutant) concentration on the overall reaction rate of a trickle-bed reactor used for biological waste gas purification was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Removal of organic air pollutants from exhaust gases in the trickle-bed bioreactor. Effect of oxygen
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe reaction engineering fundamentals of the separation of organic air pollutants (volatile organic compounds) from waste gases using fixed-bacteria monocultures (biocatalysts) in a trickle-bed reactor.
