Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to a system and process for combined and simultaneous treatment of methane and of nitrogenous liquid effluent, inter alia, landfill leachates. Principally, the invention provides a biofiltration system and process for the combined and simultaneous treatment of gas containing methane (CH4) and of nitrogenous liquid effluents by virtue of synergy between nitrifying and methanotrophic microorganisms. The use of a single biofiltration system according to the invention avoids recourse to two treatment lines specific to methane and to the effluent. Furthermore, the exothermic reaction for biological oxidation of methane enables temperature regulation of the biofilter even during winter periods.
