Abstract
To investigate the microbial degradation of ethyl acetate and toluene mixtures in biofiltration, three laboratory-scale reactors, inoculated with a two-month conditioned culture from activated sludge, were operated for a continuous period of 6 months. Biofilters were packed with a fibrous peat that has been previously shown as an adequate biofilter material for TEX removal. Each reactor was downflow fed with air contaminated with ethyl acetate,...
