Biofiltration is one of the techniques used to reduce odours produced in livestock facilities. It uses a filter capable of sustaining microbial life to treat odourous air. Microorganisms in the biofilter break down the odours in air flowing through the system. Several factors influence the performance of biofilters. These include:
-Filter media
-Airflow
-Moisture
-Temperature
-Nutrient availability
