Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立成功大學 === 化學工程學系 === 84 === Biofilter has a better removal ability of pollutant; especially for low volatile organic compounds (VOC). The removal of pollutant by the peat was mainly by adsorption and decomposition. In is study, we modified the biofilter into a series of labortory-scale columns. We immobilised the activated sludge on the agar or reticulate materials. In this way, cells can be supplied with nutrient and extend its life and stability, then we can maintenance cost and operate handly.This study can be diveded into three parts. Main components of the inlet gas are toluene and benzene. First, we immobilised the cells with activated sludge slurry on agar and mixed with certain fillings (such as compost, water, Ca3(PO4)2 and CaCO3). Then we get a bulk sample. The sample was cut into (0.7)3 cm3 cubes and filled into the column. The system was operated with different aeration rates, when the aeration rate was 0.12 NL/min, The system had better stability, VOC removal efficiency and column moisture could be well maintained. Second, we filled reticulate material into column proportionally in addition to the cubic agar, and added little nutrient periodically under continuous operation. Removal efficiency of the system can thus be enhanced because of the added nutrient. Third, we filled (0.5)3 cm3 cubic immobilized activated sluge into columns and replaced the compost with coffee residue and cane residue. The immobilized material of compost, coffee residual, and cane residue, respectively, can promote the performance of the system to above 90%. The efficiency can also be steadily maintained at such a high level by either of these immobilized materials. To operate the system initially with a lower aeration rate, and then increase the aeration rate, the stability of the operation system as well as the removal efficiency can be improved. The removal efficiency of above 90% can be reached before 280 hours of operation.
