Title: Hybrid-Bioscrubber technology, a smart solution for VOCs and Odor treatment
Abstract: In many production processes, whenever turning raw materials to products there are unavoidable to release some wastes to the environment. In SCG by Circular Economy policy, we try to minimize and recycle those wastes as best as possible. For a small portion of them, such as VOCs and Odor emission, we have our own develop technology, so called “Hybrid-Bio-scrubber technology” to relieve the environmental problem. The design of the system is not fixed but it will be adjustable to each of location of VOC’s source. The overall configuration will be comprised of 3 units i.e. Pre-treatment, Bio-scrubber, and Post treatment. We also concern for the secondary waste water that would be generated from the bio-scrubber unit, so we have plug-in an additional unit of “Constructed Wetlands” to treat the waste water and recycling back to be used as the fresh water to the system. By this concept, it would be said that the technology is completely environmental friendly solution of the world.
