[en] ABSTRACT: A research was carried out to develop a biphasic biological reactor able to clean the gas effluents polluted by volatile organic compounds (V.O.C). Initially, Rhodococcus erythropolis T 902.1 had been selected on the basis of its capacity to degrade isopropyl-benzene (IPB).
The effect of gas flow and IPB concentration on the biodegadation of IPB was evaluated.
The results show that the use of silicon-oil allows large quantities of IPB to be absorbed within the medium of biological abatement. On the other hand, the biodegradation rate is directly correlated to the inlet flow of IPB. Thus, the reactor presents interesting opportunities in the biological treatment of gas effluents.
