How to Reduce the Emission of Microorganisms from a Biofilter Used to Treat Waste Gas from a Food Industry Plant

Abstract: The aim of the study was to assess the bioaerosol removal efficiency by a semi-technical scale combined biofilter used to treat waste gas from a food industry plant. Two types of biofilter beds were tested: stumpwood chips and pine bark (CB) and stumpwood chips, pine bark and compost (CBC). Two types of membranes (covering the surface of the bed) were examined as the second stage of treatment: Pro Eko Tex UV (M1) and Pro Eko Tex UV 6 (M2). A conventional open biofilter (without membranes) was an emitter of mic… Show more

“…The average pressure drop was 379 ± 13 Pa and 596 ± 84 Pa in the open biofilter filled with stumpwood chips and pine bark (M1) and stumpwood chips, pine bark, and compost from green waste (M2), respectively. Membranes A and B generated an additional pressure drop of 59-64 Pa (membrane A) and 28-63 Pa (membrane B) [37].…”
