Duocart Biofiltration

ASAIO Journal, 1999
DuoCart biofiltration (DCB) is a new hemodialysis method using a dialysate with only sodium chloride and bicarbonate obtained from two separate powder cartridges (BiCart and SelectCart, Gambro, Sweden). The ionic complement is directly reinfused in postdilution mode, using one 2 L bag of a specially designed sterile solution.

Engineering green wall botanical biofiltration to abate indoor volatile organic compounds: A review on mechanisms, phyllosphere bioaugmentation, and modeling.

Journal of Hazardous Materials
Indoor air pollution affects the global population, especially in developed countries where people spend around 90% of their time indoors. The recent pandemic exacerbated the exposure by relying on indoor spaces and a teleworking lifestyle.

Capabilities of Microbial Consortia from Disparate Environment Matrices in the Decomposition of Nature Organic Matter by Biofiltration.

Water Research
Dissolved organic matter (DOM) plays a pivotal role in drinking water treatment, influencing the performance of unit processes and final water quality (e.g. disinfection byproduct risk). Biofiltration is an effective method of reducing DOM, but currently

Lessons Learned in Biofiltration

Journal AWWA, 2023
Key TakeawaysResearch and operational experience have proved biofiltration's success, answering many questions that utilities considering it for treatment may have.Determining treatment objectives is the best starting point for water providers that are new to biofiltration.Upon full‐scale implementation, operations staff should be familiar with ...

Methane Biofiltration Processes: A Summary of Biotic and Abiotic Factors

Methane
The ongoing yearly rise in worldwide methane (CH4) emissions is mostly due to human activities. Nevertheless, since over half of these emissions are scattered and have a concentration of less than 3% (v/v), traditional physical–chemical methods are not ...

Accelerated dissemination of antibiotic resistant genes via conjugative transfer driven by deficient denitrification in biochar-based biofiltration systems.

Science of the Total Environment
Biofiltration systems harbored and disseminated antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), when confronting antibiotic-contained wastewater. Biochar, a widely used environmental remediation material, can mitigate antibiotic stress on adjoining microbes by ...

Active compost biofiltration of toluene

Biodegradation, 1997
Composting of leaves and alfalfa (i.e. active compost) was used for the biofiltration of toluene-contaminated air in a 6-L biofilter (initial bed height: 180 mm). During the thermophilic phase (45 to 55 degrees C), toluene biodegradation rates reached 110 g toluene.m-3.h-1 at an inlet concentration of about 5 g.m-3 and a gas residence time of 90 ...

Extended field investigations of ozone-biofiltration advanced water treatment for potable reuse.

Water Research, 2020
Recovering and reusing treated wastewater effluent is a sustainable and cost-effective practice for addressing global water sustainability. To date, most potable reuse advanced water treatment (AWT) solutions are based on reverse osmosis (RO), which ...

Biofiltration of Air: A Review

Critical Reviews in Biotechnology, 2005
In this paper we present a review of the existing air pollution control technologies (APCT), when used essentially for the elimination of volatile organic compounds (VOC). The biotechnologies referred to, bioscrubbers, biotrickling filters and biofilters, are also described.

The effect of intermittent drying and wetting stormwater cycles on the nutrient removal performances of two vegetated biofiltration designs.

Chemosphere, 2020
Vegetated biofiltration systems (biofilters) are now a well-established technology for treatment of urban stormwater, typically showing high nutrient uptake.
