DescriptionTo comply with the Clean Air Act and its 1990 Amendments without losing competitive edge constitutes a severe challenge to many U.S. manufacturers. The biological treatment of volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions is one of the possible air pollution abatement options to meet this challenge. This biological treatment of air emissions is relatively unknown in the USA, though it has widespread practical use in Europe. An experimental program was initiated at Rutgers University in 1989. This mini-symposium gives a variety of topics related to the issue of bioscrubbing of gaseous emissions. At the end of symposium, a brief discussion was given of formulate some recommendations designed to promote an awareness and an increased use of biotreatment options for gaseous emissions.
