Advantages of Biofilters
- Lower operating cost than all competing methods such as chemical scrubbing, activated carbon and incineration.
- Low capital cost.
- Ambio biofilters are designed to accommodate relatively low pressure drop.
- Truly GREEN process—no harmful chemical used, low energy requirements, and final products are benign.
- Our systems are designed to be simple and virtually maintenance free, apart from greasing the fan bearings and changing the filter material every 5 years or so. We guarantee a filter life of 4 years, but depending on the application, it may be much longer.
- There are virtually no odours originating from any wastewater treatment environment that cannot be handled by a properly designed biofilter.
- Safe and reliable operation.
Advantages of Photoionisation
- Small footprint
- can handle very high concentrations of odorous compounds (100's of ppm of H2S).
- Particularly effective on all reduced sulfurcompounds.
- Easily handles spikes
- Operates over a wide temperature range (-30 oC - > 70 oC).
- Low maintenance requirements (1/2 day/ year)
- No water or chemicals required
- Very stable process
- Can easily be turned on or off and begins working immediately
- Low energy demand
Advantages of Corona Discharge
- Small footprint
- Low capital and operating costs
- Very little maintenance
- Reduction of odor levels in odorous rooms, buildings
- Healthier and safer working environment
- Fewer air changes per hour, resulting in energy savings and smaller ducting for off-gas treatment
- No water or chemicals required
- Very stable process
- Can easily be turned on or off, so can be used only when room is occupied
- Flexible installation requirements (no ducting; can be hung on ceilings, walls, etc.)
