9415318 Ergas This is an award to support preliminary work on the potential use of hydrophobic membranes in a biofiltration process for removing volatile organic potential air pollutants from gaseous byproducts of chemical and process industries. The investigator plans on designing a laboratory scale membrane biofiltration system that will utilize either microporous or dense polymer hollow-fiber membranes to transfer the target volatile organic substances to a liquid medium. Biodegradation of the compounds is expected to occur on the membrane as well as in the liquid phase. The proposal leading to this award was submitted in response to NSF 93-130, Research Planning Grants for Women. Results are expected to provide information that can be used in determining the feasibility of the process and the basis for a more comprehensive research project that would determine conditions and engineering design parameters for this process to remove potential air pollutants from gaseous byproducts of industrial processes. ***

9415318 Ergas这是一个奖项，以支持在生物过滤过程中的疏水膜的潜在用途的初步工作，从化学和加工工业的气体副产品去除挥发性有机潜在的空气污染物。 研究人员计划设计一个实验室规模的膜生物过滤系统，该系统将利用微孔或致密聚合物中空纤维膜将目标挥发性有机物质转移到液体介质中。 预期化合物的生物降解发生在膜上以及液相中。 导致该奖项的提案是根据NSF 93-130《妇女研究规划赠款》提交的。 结果预计将提供信息，可用于确定该过程的可行性和基础上，一个更全面的研究项目，将确定条件和工程设计参数，这个过程中，以消除潜在的空气污染物的气体副产品的工业过程。 ***
