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这是一项奖项，旨在支持有关疏水膜在生物滤通过程中潜在使用的初步工作，以消除化学和工艺工业的气态副产品的挥发性有机空气污染物。 研究人员计划设计实验室尺度膜生物过滤系统，该系统将利用微孔或密集的聚合物空心纤维膜将目标挥发性有机物质转移到液体培养基中。 预计化合物的生物降解将发生在膜上以及液相上。 导致该奖项的提案是为了响应NSF 93-130的妇女研究计划赠款而提交的。 预计结果将提供可用于确定过程的可行性的信息，以及更全面的研究项目的基础，该项目将确定此过程的条件和工程设计参数，以从工业过程的气态副产品中去除潜在的空气污染物。 ***
