Journal ArticleDOI
Sorption kinetics of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons removal using granular activated carbon: Intraparticle diffusion coefficients
TL;DR: Granular activated carbon was evaluated as a suitable sorbent for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons removal from aqueous solutions and the Weber and Morris intraparticle diffusion model made a double contribution to the surface and pore diffusivities in the sorption process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biological sweetening of energy gases mimics in biotrickling filters.
Marc Fortuny,Juan A. Baeza,Xavier Gamisans,C. Casas,Javier Lafuente,Marc A. Deshusses,David Gabriel +6 more
TL;DR: The results reported here show that biotreatment can be an interesting alternative to conventional gas sweetening systems normally used for such applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
A detailed model of a biofilter for ammonia removal: Model parameters analysis and model validation
Guillermo Baquerizo,Juan P. Maestre,Takeyuki Sakuma,Marc A. Deshusses,Xavier Gamisans,David Gabriel,Javier Lafuente +6 more
TL;DR: A dynamic model to describe ammonia removal in a gas-phase biofilter was developed and was capable of predicting the outlet ammonia gas concentrations as well as reproducing satisfactorily the gaseous ammonia concentration profile with time under FA inhibition and under non-inhibitory conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fungal biofilters for toluene biofiltration: Evaluation of the performance with four packing materials under different operating conditions
TL;DR: It is pointed out that fungal biofilters are a suitable choice to treat high loads of toluene and exhibited a better performance in terms of elimination capacity and long-term stability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oxidation by Fenton's reagent combined with biological treatment applied to a creosote-comtaminated soil.
TL;DR: The physico-chemical properties of the pollutants were an important factor in the PAH removal as they influenced chemical, biological and combined treatments.
