Treatment of gaseous emissions from tire manufacturing industry using lab-scale biofiltration pilot units.

Continuously seeking the improvement of environmental protection, the limitation of exhaust emissions is of significance for the tire manufacturing industry. The aim of this study is to assess the potential of biofiltration for the treatment of such gaseous emissions. This work highlights that biofiltration is able to remove both hydrophilic and hydrophobic compounds within a single pilot unit of biofiltration.
