Abstract
The efficient removal of volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs), such as dimethyl sulfide (DMS), dimethyl disulfide (DMDS) and dimethyl trisulfide (DMTS), is crucial due to their foul odor and corrosive potential in sewer systems. Biofilters (BFs) offer promise for VSCs removal, but face challenges related to pH control and changing conditions at full scale. Two BFs, operated under acidophilic conditions for 78 days, were evaluated for their performance at varying inlet concentrations and empty bed residence times (EBRTs). BF1, incorporating 4-6 mm marble limestone for pH control, outperformed BF2, which used NaHCO3 in the nutrient solution. BF1 displayed better resilience, maintained a stable pH of 4.6 +/- 0.6, and achieved higher maximum elimination capacities (ECmax, 41 mg DMS m(-3) h(-1) (RE 38.3%), 146 mg DMDS m(-3) h(-1) (RE 83.1%), 47 mg DMTS m(-3) h(-1) (RE 93.1%)) at an EBRT of 56 s compared to BF2 (9 mg DMS m(-3) h(-1) (RE 7.1%), 9 mg DMDS m(-3) h(-1) (RE 4.8%) and 11 mg DMTS m(-3) h(-1) (RE 26.6%)). BF2 exhibited pH stratification and decreased performance after feeding interruptions. The biodegradability of VSCs followed the order DMTS > DMDS > DMS, and several microorganisms were identified contributing to VSCs degradation in BF1, including Bacillus (14%), Mycobacterium (11%), Acidiphilium (7%), and Acidobacterium (3%).
