Vast potential exists for the development of novel, engineered platforms that manipulate
biology for the production of programmed advanced materials. Such systems would possess …

Biofilters are packed-bed bioreactors where contaminants, once transferred from the gas
phase to the biofilm, are oxidized by diverse and complex communities of attached …

The spatial and temporal dynamics of microbial community structure and function were
surveyed in duplicated woodchip-biofilters operated under constant conditions for 231 days …

La production et le rôle des N-acyl homosérine lactones (AHL) dans les boues activées sont
jusqu'à maintenant mal connus. Dans cette étude, des essais d'alimentation croisée avec la …

Removal of hazardous organic compounds from waste gases in co-current gas− liquid
downflow trickle-bed bioreactors can result in bed clogging as a result of biomass …

We have previously reported the disappearance of a specific strain degrading
chlorobenzene from a functionally stable bioreactor. In the present work, we investigated this …

Selected results are presented of an on-going project conducted by Ekoinwentyka Ltd. with
the aim to design, test and apply a compact trickle-bed bioreactor–operated in a biofiltration …

While structured packing modules are known to be efficient for surface wetting and gas-
liquid exchange in abiotic surface catalysis, this model study explores structured packing as …

Since full-scale biofilters are often operated under fluctuating conditions, it is critical to
understand their response to transient states. Four pilot-scale biofilters treating a composting …

ABSTRACT A nucleic acid-based approach was used to investigate the dynamics of a
microbial community dominated by Xanthobacter autotrophicus GJ10 in the degradation of …
