UNASSIGNED: The removal of @entity28541 from gaseous emissions was studied using two biotrickling filters (BTF1 and BTF2) packed with @entity2636 foam. Two different inoculum sources were used: a pure culture of @entity15250 sp. BOE200 (BTF1) and activated sludge from a municipal wastewater treatment plant (BTF2). The bioreactors were operated at inlet loads (ILs) of 130 and 195gm(-3)hour(-1) and at an empty bed residence time (EBRT) of 12.5s. Under an IL of    130gm(-3)hour(-1), BTF1 presented higher elimination capacities (ECs) than BTF2, with average values of 106  7 and 68  8gm(-3)hour(-1), respectively. However, differences in ECs between BTFs were decreased by reducing the irrigation intervals from 1min every 12min to 1min every 2hours in BTF2. Average values of EC were 111  25 and 90  7gm(-3)hour(-1) for BTF1 and BTF2, respectively, when working at an IL of    195gm(-3)hour(-1). Microbial analysis revealed a significant shift in the microbial community of BTF1 inoculated with @entity15250 sp. BOE200. At the end of the experiment, the species Microbacterium sp., Chryseobacterium sp., Acinetobacter sp., @entity15250 sp. and Mycobacterium sp. were detected. In BTF2 inoculated with activated sludge, the denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) technique showed a diverse microbial community including species that was able to use @entity28541 as its @entity505 source, such as @entity796 and @entity15250 as representative species. Although BTF1 inoculated with @entity15250 sp. BOE200 and higher gas velocity (probably greater gas/liquid mass transfer rate) showed a slight improvement in performance, the use of activated sludge as inoculum seems to be a more feasible option for the industrial application of this technology.
