Abstract

Removal of complex mixtures of volatile organic compounds (VOC) from waste air using a microbial consortium during biofiltration process was discussed. Biodegradation studies were conducted in microcosms using rice hulls as support. The consortium evolution was established in winter and summer temperature conditions submitted biofilters. Both biofilters showed thinner degradation capacity with total carbon feed as reference.
