Advantages of Biofiltration

Biofiltration has many advantages over traditional VOC's and HAP destruction methods.

VOC's and HAP's are Oxidized at Ambient Temperatures - The low temperature oxidation eliminates the high costs associated with combustion.
Intrinsically Safe - The low temperature oxidation and high moisture content eliminate the fears associated with combustion.
Low Annual Operating Cost - There are only two major power consumers in a biofiltration system: a recirculation pump for humidification and a fan to pull the gas stream through the equipment.
Low Pressure Drop - Much lower pressure drop than catalytic or regenerative thermal oxidizers resulting in fan power consumption savings.
Proven Effective Technology - Biofiltration systems are in place with historical operating experience demonstrating regulatory compliance.
Environmentally Friendly - Zero NOx emissions, Zero SOx emissions and substantially lower Carbon Dioxide emissions.
Low Maintenance - Very few moving parts result in lower maintenance cost.
