Treatment of air pollutants emitted from corn-derived ethanol production facilities
… ethanol production facilities for emissions of air pollutants and found that these facilities can be significant sources of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), hazardous air pollutants (HAPs), and odors. The distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) dryer stack at ethanol production facilities …

Experimental and numerical evaluation of electrothermal–swing adsorption for capture and recovery or destruction of organic vapors
Emissions of hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) to the atmosphere are serious environmental issues. There were 0.53 billion kg of HAPs and 15 billion kg of VOCs emitted to the atmosphere from anthropogenic sources during 2004 and 2002, respectively. Eighty-nine …
