Abstract
A biological treatment system for removal of gaseous waste materials. The system comprises a column containing microorganisms which break down components of the waste materials; a pond in series with the column containing life forms in addition to the microorganisms in the column, which life forms provide essential nutrients for the microorganisms in the column; a treatment bed containing a reaction medium for removing undesirable biological metabolic by-products from the action of said microorganisms upon the gaseous waste materials; a fluid distribution means for circulating water between the pond, column and bed and a means for delivering gaseous waste materials through the column before such gaseous waste materials reach the pond.
