Abstract

In this study, the toluene gas in VOCs was removed using bioreactor which applied with hollow fiber membrane and Pseudomonas sp. TDB-4. The EBRT of each reactor are controlled 60 sec(R-1) and 30 sec(R-2) and inlet tolune concentration of both R-1 and R-2 is controlled from 25ppm to 500 ppm. Up to 500 ppm of toluene concentration, the toluene removal efficiency of R-1 and R-2 are 92% and 81%, and theirs removal capacities are about 100 g/$m^3$/hr and 180 g/$m^3$/hr, respectively. In addition, according to this study, toluene removal efficiencies at the hollow fiber are approximately 70%(60 sec) and 45%(30sec).
