Couverture de l’ouvrage From Biofiltration to Promising Options in Gaseous Fluxes Biotreatment
From Biofiltration to Promising Options in Gaseous Fluxes Biotreatment: Recent Developments, New Trends, Advances, and Opportunities provides an overview on the biological tools used for the treatment of the gaseous fluxes, with emphasis on traditional and perspective options, opening new horizons for research and implementation in practice. It is known that air pollution is an emergent global issue and a priority within the international environmental programs. Moreover, technologies based on biological methods are significantly contributing to the sustainable development concept. Thus this book provides tools for solving air pollution issues in a sustainable manner. These issues can be solved at different levels (e.g., "end-of-pipe" gaseous streams, indoor/outdoor air, closed environments), which can be approached by the different biotechniques presented in the book, from classical biofiltration techniques (part 1) to phytotreatment and microalgae-based techniques (part 2). Although all options have their particularities that make them special for certain applications, a special attention is drawn to the potential of the last one, which offers multiple possibilities for biomass valorization. Scientists from worldwide with relevant experience in their field have been contributed to the development of this book.

Part 1. Biological Treatment of Gaseous Streams: Attached and Suspended Biomass Units Part 1.1. Benchmark aspects on biological removal of contaminants from gaseous streams 1. Current challenges and perspectives in gas fluxes biotreatment 2. Biofilters versus bioscrubbers and biotrickling filters: state of the art of biological air treatment 3. Determination of biofilters performances 4. Porous media models for packed-bed characterization 5. Life cycle assessment of biofiltration

Plant physiological mechanisms of air treatment 12. Plant-microbe interaction within phytosystems used for air treatment 13. Technological aspects of the removal of air pollutants by phytosystems 14. Phytosystems implementation: examples of application in practice

Part 2.2. Microalgae-based approaches 15. Microalgae with potential in air treatment 16. Microalgae photobioreactors for gaseous contaminants removal 17. Microalgae-based biomass production for control of air pollutants 18. CO2 capture from CO2 - rich gases by microalgae 19. A model microalgae for addressing air treatment in spacecrafts 20. Microalgae for combined air revitalization and biomass production for space applications

Dr. Éric Dumont is an associate professor (University of Nantes, France) in the Department Energetic and Environmental Engineering (UMR CNRS 6144 GEPEA, IMT-Atlantique). He graduated in Chemical Engineering (engineer's degree) in 1994 from the University of Savoie, France, and then completed a PhD in Chemical Engineering at the University of Nantes, France, in 1999. His research focus is on the design, analysis and application of processes for the remediation of contaminated gases. Applications include treatment of odors, air toxics and biogas production. He is currently working on the development of bioprocesses and multiphase systems for the treatment of hydrophobic volatile organic compounds.
