Experimental study of droplet biofilter packed with green sphagnum to clean air from volatile organic compounds

Abstract

Chemical industries are the main producers of such products as upstream petroleum, solvents and paints and other have the biggest influence on discharging volatile organic compounds (VOC) in to the environment. Research of biofilter packed with green sphagnum load to eliminate pollutant xylene was made. Filter load as a material has good capabilities to absorb water. The main task of this research is the experimental study of a drop biofilter packed with green sphagnum to eliminate volatile organic compound (VOC).
