Industrial gaseous emissions treatment processes

Adsorption ; Adsorption

Transfer and interactions of a molecule present in the gas or liquid phase onto a solid, and process associated with this mechanism.

Absorption; Absorption

Transfer and solubilization of a molecule present in the gas phase in a liquid and process associated with this mechanism.

Biofiltration; Biofiltration

Process for treating gaseous emissions by passing air over a moistened bacterial support.

Biolaveur; Bioscrubber

Process for treating gaseous emissions by passing air through a water-cooled trickling bed. The transferred pollution is degraded in activated sludge basins.
