Abstract:
The chemical, physical and biological processes occurring in biofiltration are reviewed. A survey of operating biofilter performances is also presented and includes some novel comparative methods. It is concluded that biofiltration is a simple and cost-effective technology for odour removal and that an understanding of the many interactions occuring within the biofilter is essential for the optimal performance of the biofilter.
