AGB process for integrated multimedia treatment using bio-sorption

摘要

An integrated treatment process and apparatus is provided for removing selected contaminants from both liquid and gaseous waste streams. A multistage separation and bio-oxidation substrate is provided in a column through which the contaminants are passed. The substrate components provide absorption, adsorption, ion exchange, solubility, and bio-degradation qualities to the column to effectively separate and destroy a wide range of contaminants in industrial waste streams.
