WATER INDUSTRY - Biofiltration
Controlling hydrogen sulfide and other odour emissions is a major issue for most wastewater treatment plants. H2S odours can by reduced to very low levels by wet scrubbers using caustic and chlorine or sodium hypochlorite. However, the chemical storage, metering, and control equipment all add to the cost of a scrubber. The chemicals are hazardous, and the amounts required to treat H2S are quite high, so the cost of operating the scrubber can quickly add up.
Wastewater is also treatable by biological methods with great success, e.g. Biological filters including intermediate-rate, high-rate, super high-rate, and roughing filters for carbonaceous BOD removal, nitrification, and denitrification.
