The presented paper presents the results of research on the removal of selected hydrophobic volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from their mixture with air by means of a trickled-bed biofiltration. The efficiency of the removal of toluene and α-pinene, as model VOCs, in a three-section biotrickling filter is evaluated using GCFID and additionally monitored with an electronic nose. The results show that the removal of the model mixture of VOCs occurs with a satisfactory efficiency i.e. exceeding 80% within 21 days after the system startup when ceramic Rashig rings inoculated with Candida species are packed in a biofilter and the trickling liquid is enriched with a surface active substance.
