Popis: The trickle-bed air biofilter (TBAB) performance for methylacetate (MA) removal from waste gases was evaluated under different gas flow rates and influent concentrations. In the pseudo-steady-state conditions, the elimination capacity increased but the removal efficiency decreased with the increase of MA loading. More than 95 and 90% removal efficiencies were achieved for influent MA loadings below 390 and 727 g/m3/h, respectively. The TBAB appears to be a very effective treatment process for controlling MA emission under low to high loading conditions, and the effectiveness could be maintained over 190 days of laboratory operation.
