MónaFil®

“Air Clean offer proven, proprietary clean air bio-technologies, which provide best-in-class process performance with the lowest utility and life cycle costs”

MónaFil® is an engineered organic biofilter media which is used almost almost exclusively on high volume airflows with low to moderate levels of VOC, H₂S, Organic Sulphur, Ammonia and Organic Nitrogen compounds.

Control of hydrogen sulphide and VOCs is a concern in many wastewater treatment, composting and industrial plants: hydrogen sulphide, and many VOC’s, create odours, are corrosive, cause air pollution and can be detrimental to health

The combination of excellent mechanical properties, longevity, uniformity and porosity results in a long-life media and permits to install a depth of 3m. The features of the resulting biofiltration system are low footprint, high performance and low system pressure. It delivers a low initial capital cost which in turn combined with the properties of the media yields low life cycle costs, particularly on large airstreams, due to the low energy requirement and long media life.

TYPICAL APPLICATION	BENEFITS
MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTE	LONG MEDIA LIFE (10 YEARS +)
INDUSTRIAL SOLID WASTE	HYDROGEN SULPHIDE AND ORGANIC SULPHUR HIGH REMOVAL EFFICIENCY
MUNICIPAL WASTEWATER	AMMONIA AND MERCAPTANS HIGH REMOVAL EFFICIENCY
INDUSTRIAL WASTEWATER	VERY EFFECTIVE ON VOC REMOVAL
FOOD INDUSTRY	LOW AIR PRESSURE DROPS
RENDERING	LOW RUNNING COSTS
AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY (AUTOMATIC HYDROCARBON REMOVAL)	LOW MAINTENANCE
