The unpleasant odour and smell are often associated with industrial activities, especially within the area of municipal wastewater collection and treatment, at wastewater treatment and sludge treatment plants, near sewerage systems, at landfills and composting plants, during food or chemical industry. The VENTUS Biofilter system, using the biodegradability of microorganisms, is an environmentally friendly, sustainable and safe solution to eliminate odour problems.
VENTUS A-P is a treatment system for all-purposes among the product range. Our active and passive biofilters are the most common products on the market of air filtration systems. Passive biofilter supplies without fan, the forced flow pushes the air through the filter media. Active biofilters are assembled with electrical fans and they are ready for 24/7 usage. The passive version can be upgraded anytime into active biofilter. The cleaning capacity of 10 m3 up to 1000 m3 meets the general requirements. The filters can run in network if the system needs an upgrade.
The success of a biofiltration system is mainly the result of the three basic biological degradation processes shown here (simplified representation):
Organic Carbon Compounds
R - CH3 → CO2+ H2O + Biomass
Organic Sulphur containing Compounds
R - SH → SO42- + Biomass
R - SH → SO42- → Biomass
Organic Nitrogen containing Compounds
R - NH2 → NO3– + Biomass
R - NH2 → NO3– → Biomass
R = organic matter
