Biofiltration of Odorous Gases from the Foodwaste Composting Facility

음식물쓰레기 퇴비화시설에서 발생하는 악취에 대해 90일 동안 입구농도를 측정한 결과 발효기 가동시간에는 $10{\sim}100ppm$, 비가동시간에는 $0{\sim}10ppm$의 농도를 나타냈다. 바이오필터의 제거효율은 초기에 80%정도를 보이다 20일 전후를 해서 90%이상을 나타냈다. 압력손실은 90일 경과 후에도 20 $mmH_2O$를 넘지 않아 바이오필터에 효율적인 악취처리가 이루어졌음을 알 수 있다.

We measured the inlet concentration of odorous gases from the food-waste composting facility for 90 days. In consequence of this survey, we ascertained that the gaseous concentration was detected $10{\sim}100ppm$ in operating time, but $0{\sim}10ppm$ in a shutdown of the facility. The initial removal efficiency of this biofilter was roughly represented 80%, however, 90% before and after twenty days. We have thought that this biofilter accomplished the treatment of those odorous gases effectively, because the pressure-drop was not exceeded a value of $20mmH_2O$ after 90 days.
