Macrokinetic and quantitative microbial investigation on a bench-scale biofilter treating styrene-polluted gaseous streams.

abstract：:An efficient method was developed for media separation and cell collection for eukaryotic cells growing in suspension. The method is based on tangential flow microfiltration using an open channel arrangement in a hollow fiber configuration. Best results (highest processing flux rate) for polysulfone hollow fibers were...
