Kinetics and reactor design for a biofiltration system targeting odor compounds and volatile organics. Built a kinetic baseline model that predicted effluent concentration of the rate-limiting compound across a unit handling 220,000 gal/min.
Achieved 95% removal of the rate-limiting species alongside broad VOC reduction. Flagged a data inconsistency at project outset, enabling early correction. Final design met scope and quality targets and cut projected cost by 5%.
