MultiPhase BioSystem

The MultiPhase BioSystem is capable of controlling volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions from virtually all sources. A practical alternative to thermal oxidizers, in-bed biofiltration systems, and aerobic digestion, it combines characteristics of an in-bed bioscrubber and aerobic digestion with the high removal efficiency of micron-scale mist scrubbing. It treats high inlet concentrations of VOC emissions, including such alcohols as methanol and other high-vapor-pressure compounds, as well as more difficult turpenes and pinenes. The system can be sited close to the emission source, which minimizes cost and duct complexity. It can be installed as a tower with a small footprint, as well as in other configurations to meet a facility’s space constraints. The system provides high removal rates for high particulate concentrations and heavy loadings of biological treatment products without clogging media beds. Its media is permanent, eliminating the need to replace either the media or the packing.
