Headquartered in Guelph, Ontario, with offices in Victor, NY and Beijing, China, Biorem began as a derivative company from the University of Waterloo. Incorporated in 1991, Biorem has quickly grown as an industry leader in air pollution control.

Continued investment initiatives in R&D have allowed Biorem to expand its core business from odor control to total air emissions control, tapping into rapidly growing key markets such as methane (biogas) emission management and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs).

Biorem product offerings:

Biofilters – Biorem offers an array of biologically based biofilter technologies for the removal of odors, H2S, VOCs and hazardous air pollutants (HAPs). The systems can treat air flows from as little as 100 cfm to greater than 500,000 cfm of air and are available in many sizes and options from our smaller integrated modular units to our larger custom designed field erected system. Biorem's biofilters utilize our patented inorganic permanent media Biosorbens® or XLD which both carry a 10 year warranty.

 

Biotrickling Filters – Biorem’s biotrickling filters are designed for the removal of high level H2S and other water soluble odorous gases from air streams. Utilizing our high performance inorganic permanent media, we are able to offer a cost effective and efficient process in achieving greater than 99% removal.

Dual Stage Systems - Complex odors associated with various municipal waste water treatment processes can be difficult to treat. That is why Biorem offers a robust and cost effective approach by combining our biotrickling filters and biofilter technologies. The first stage consists of a customizable biotrickling filter that is used as a roughing scrubber to remove elevated hydrogen sulfide concentrations, allowing the second stage biofilter to concentrate on the more difficult organic sulfides and VOCs.

Methane (Biogas) Emissions – The removal of impurities and conditioning of the biogas helps to improve the recoverable value of the resource through greatly reduced operation and maintenance costs for downstream equipment such as reciprocating engines and turbines.  The Biorem approach uses a biological solution that offers reliable and simple operation without the use of chemicals or costly consumable media(s).

Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) – Biorem offers a VOC removal system to manage emissions containing high levels of VOCs. The system combines biological technology with activated regenerable carbon to yield a removal rate able to meet and exceed every regulatory jurisdiction requirement. Each VOC treatment system is custom designed to meet the facilities specific needs.

Biorem has sales and manufacturing across the continent, a dedicated research facility, an analytical and microbial laboratory, a worldwide sales representative network, a dedicated service division and over 600 installations worldwide. As a result, Biorem has the resources available to ensure that all projects are handled promptly and professionally from conception to completion.
