Biofilter: Technology for Industrial Odour Control

Biofilter technology (Patented Technology: US6696284) offers a sustainable solution for controlling industrial odour, particularly in industries such as shrimp feed plants, fish meal plants, and composting facilities. It employs specially designed biofilter media that provides essential moisture, supports microbial growth, and acts as a neutralizing agent for odorous gases. The media's unique characteristics include low pressure drop, high water holding capacity, and efficient mass transfer of contaminants from air to microbes. This environmentally friendly technology promotes green practices with its long-lasting effectiveness, addressing industrial odour issues comprehensively while aligning with sustainable practices.

  • Advantages :
    • Sustainable Odour Control:Provides an environmentally friendly solution for industrial odour management.
    • Efficient Microbial Support:Specially designed media promotes microbial growth and optimal moisture levels.
    • Energy-Efficient Design:Low pressure drop in the biofilter media reduces overall energy consumption.
    • Versatile Industrial Application:Suitable for various industries (i.e., Fish meal plants, Bone mill, Gelatin factory, Rendering plants, Petrochemical, Pharmaceutical, Spray painting, STPs/ETPs, solid waste treatment sites, etc.) enhancing environmental stewardship and operational efficiency.
