What is Transient Performance of Two-phase Partitioning Bioreactors Treating a Toluene Contaminated Gas Stream about?
## Abstract Two‐phase partitioning bioreactors (TPPBs) consist of a cell‐containing aqueous phase and an immiscible organic phase that sequesters and delivers toxic substrates to cells based on equilibrium partitioning. The immiscible organic phase, which acts as a buffer for inhibitory substrate loadings, makes it possible for TPPBs to handle high volatile organic compound (VOC) loadings, and in this study the performance of liquid __n__‐hexadecane and solid styrene butadiene (SB) polymer beads used as partitioning phases were compared to a single aqueous phase system while treating transient loadings of a toluene contaminated air stream by __Achromobacter xylosoxidans__ Y234. The TPPBs operated as well‐mixed stirred tanks, with total working volumes of 3 L (3 L aqueous for the single‐phase system, 2 L aqueous and 1 L __n__‐hexadecane for the solvent system, and 2.518 L aqueous volume and 500 g of SB beads for the polymer system). Two 60‐min step changes (7 and 17 times the nominal loading rates, termed “small” and “large” steps, respectively) were imposed on the systems and the performance was characterized by the overall removal efficiencies, instantaneous removal efficiency rec
