Abstract

In this work, a biofilter filled with a scoria-compost mixture to remove xylene using biofiltration is consider. The concentration of xylene in the gas and biofilm phases is the main focus of the novel model. The goal of the study is to fully comprehend how the system reacts to changing dimensionless parameters by transforming a second-order differential equation into a dimensionless form. This is accomplished by solving the governing equation analytically using the Adomian Decomposition Method (ADM). MATLAB numerical simulations and the resulting analytical solutions for dimensionless concentrations are then compared, and a good connection is found. The paper also examines the limiting scenarios for both saturated and unsaturated kinetic reactions of xylene concentrations, offering a thorough analysis of how each parameter affects the behavior of the system.
