A two-phase bioreactor consisting of hexadecane dispersed in an aqueous, cell-containing medium (organic fraction = 0.33) was used to trap toluene vapours from an air stream. The affinity for toluene by the solvent resulted in high efficiency of removal and transfer to the aqueous phase based on equilibrium transfer. The system was readily able to handle a loading capacity of 748 mg l(-1) h(-1) at a toluene degradation efficiency of greater than 98%.
一个由分散在含细胞水相介质中的十六烷组成的两相生物反应器(有机部分 = 0.33)被用于从气流中捕集甲苯蒸气。基于平衡转移,溶剂对甲苯的亲和力导致了高去除效率和向水相的转移效率。该系统在甲苯降解效率大于98%时能够轻松处理748毫克/升·小时的负载量。
