Biofiltration processes help to remove trace organic chemicals (TOrCs) both in wastewater and drinking water treatment systems. However, the detailed TOrCs biotransformation mechanisms as well underlying drivers behind variability of site specific transformation remain elusive. In this study, we used laboratory batch incubations investigate 51 eight bioactive filter materials different origins ...

biofiltration method is one of the most commonly used and most effective methods to removepollutants from the exhaust gas flow from different industries. one of the most important categories of airpollutants is hap (hazardous air pollutants). this study assesses the ability of biofiltration method toremove and treat hap dea (diethanolamine) from a gas stream through a laboratory-scale biofilter...

Applied Ecological Services, Inc., has designed, engineered, constructed or overseen the construction of numerous wetland biofiltration projects. Project goals have been to clean up macronutrient-burdened water from industrial sources, agricultural systems and sewage treatment facilities. Septic management has been involved in many projects where biofilters have been created to manage stormwate...

Extreme hydro-meteorological events such as droughts are becoming more frequent, intense, and persistent. This is particularly true in the south central USA, where rapidly growing urban areas are running out of water and human-engineered water storage and management are leading to broad-scale changes in flow regimes. The Kiamichi River in southeastern Oklahoma, USA, has high fish and freshwater...
