Operating Mode

Continuous or Semi-Continuous

Host Equipment

Trickling Filter

Emissions Port (Vent)

Yes

Special Input/Output Ports

Yes

 

 

This procedure is used to represent biotransformations that take place in a Trickling Filter. Any number of reactions in sequence can be specified by stoichiometry. Biochemical oxidation and stripping removal mechanisms are considered for organic compounds entering the unit.

Special Inputs / Outputs

      Gas Output: the designated output port for VOC emissions.

      Product: the designated output port for the reaction products.

Operations

The following operation types are currently supported in the context of this unit procedure:

      Bio-Oxidize, see Trickling Filtration

      Hold, see Holding

Note that operation Hold is only available in semi-continuous operating mode.
