Odor emission is a severe problem common to most
wastewater treatment operations. Economical
advantages coupled with environmental benefits
make the process of odor biofiltration an attractive
option. However, there still exist inefficiencies
pertaining to the media used in biofiltration
processes, which at present, render the technology
economically unattractive. This study aims to
develop a novel active medium, termed as biological
activated carbon, through bacteria immobilization on
activated carbon, a supporting medium with generally
high specific surface area. The findings of...
