Study on the odor reduction of gases emitted from PVC wallpaper plant

Guo, Jian-wei 10 August 2011 (has links)
With the increases of environmental awareness and attention by the government and audiences, people begin to prosecute the pollution makers instead of tolerance. This study tried to control an air pollution source from a wallpaper plant for the purpose of attenuating odor prosecutes by residents near the plant. This study investigated chemical scrubbing, ozonation followed by GAC (Granular Activated Carbon) adsorption and biotrickling filtration techniques as control methods for eliminating odorous compounds from a waste gas stream emitted from the wallpaper plant. Scrubbing test results indicate that with an oxidative solution of 800 mg/L residual chlorine at pH 7.0 and a reductive solution of 0.2% hydrogen peroxide at pH = 12, around 90% of the VOCs (volatile organic compounds) in the tested gas could be removed. Odor intensities could be reduced from 2,317 (expressed as dilutions to threshold) to 130. Results also indicate that around 85 % of the carbonyl compounds, 41% of the alkenes and 22% of the alkanes in the waste gas could be eliminated. No removal of aromatic and halo-hydrocarbons was observed. It requires around NT$70 for chemicals to treat 1000 m3 of the gas. Ozonation-GAC adsorption tests indicate that with an ozone dosage of 5 ppm in the waste gas and a gas-ozone contact time of 12 s followed by GAC adsorption, around 95% of the VOCs in the tested gas could be removed. Odor intensities were reduced from 2,317 to <55. Around 94 % of the carbonyl compounds, 79% of the alkanes, 76% of halo-hydrocarbons, 41% of the alkenes and 20% of aromatics in the waste gas could be removed. Around NT$ 15,700 for ozone and GAC is required to treat 1000m3 of the gas. Results from biotrickling filtration tests indicate that with the supplementations of nitrogen and phosphorous nutrients to biofilms attached to wood-chip packings, around 83% of the influent VOCs could be biodegraded. Odor intensities could be reduced from 1,737 to <55. Around 61 % of the carbonyl compounds, 67% of the alkanes, 18% of halo-hydrocarbons and 33% of aromatics in the waste gas could be removed. Around NT$ 13 is required to treat 1000m3 of the gas. For an actual application, it is suggested that a process that a combination of chemical scrubbing and ozonation-GAC adsorption may be a proper solution to the control of the odorous emission from the plant. Biotrickling filtration can be best after verifying the performances of the technique by a pilot test.
