Landfill gases (LFGs) are gaseous emissions containing several harmful compounds such as volatile organic (VOCs), inorganic (VICs) along with methane (CH4) which is a powerful greenhouse gas. In the case of small or older landfills, disposal LFG can be economically challenging, and possible solution biofiltration. Biofiltration CH4 in presence two VOCs was studied, ethylbenzene (EB) for biofilt...

Drinking water biofiltration offers the possibility of removal trace level micropollutants from source water. Sand, granular activated carbon (GAC), GAC sandwich (a layer loaded in middle sand bed), and anthracite-sand dual biofilters were set-up duplicate at bench-scale to mimic filtration process real drinking treatment works. During 3-month system operation, five antibiotics (amoxicillin, cl...

Recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) are important for water quality management in facilities, and can help resume consumption. However, information about the community structure of micro-ecosystem existing biofilters, especially participation known nitrifying groups (i.e., AOA, AOB, NOB, comammox Nitrospira), remains to be fully clarified. In this research, we compared structures three RAS ...

This paper focuses on specific information needed to model various aspects of the pollutant retention processes in stormwater biofilters. Updates currently being incorporated WinSLAMM (Source Loading and Management Model) are building expanded data from laboratory field research mostly conducted by Pitt’s group at University Alabama, Tuscaloosa, Dr. Shirley Clark’s Penn State–Harrisburg, Wiscon...
