Resumen
VICs and VOCs are gases produced by polluting emissions from essential activities such as wastewater treatment, the final disposal of solid waste and from industries such as oil refineries and the factories of paints, solvents and plastics. Even though these pollutants are a by-product of representative and high-impact activities, there is no evidence of an extensive research record focused on this issue. Based on this, this project was proposed where, through a technological surveillance methodology, information is captured, selected, analyzed and disseminated on innovation in biofiltration processes used for the control or treatment of VOCs and CIVs present in the gaseous phase generated in the most representative industrial processes and with the greatest impact. All this with the aim of contributing to the investigation of innovative projects and patents in the implementation of biofilters to reduce the impact of the industrial and energy sector and as a tool that facilitates the approach to the implementation of future research projects.
Through the applied methodology and the bibliometric and scientometric analysis of the information records, it was determined that the Scopus database filters the articles relevant to the study topic more efficiently and precisely, while the ISI Web of knowledge database It covers in a general way all the information including all the activities derived from the subject under study, making it less precise when consulting. Biotrickling filters turn out to be the most used technology for research that shows a trend towards operational improvement of existing biofilters while a few focus on measuring their efficiency or searching for new filter beds.
