This study compared the performance of a bioscrubber, a biofilter, and a combined system of bioscrubber and biofilter employed being operated at the laboratory-scale. for the removal of hydrogen sulfide. The bioscrubber maintained 100% removal of hydrogen sulfide up to inlet load of 56 g-S/m3․hr, while the removal efficiency was decreased with the increase of inlet load. The biofilter showed 100% removal efficiency up to inlet load of 126 g-S/m3․h and the maximum elimination capacity of 126 g S/m3․h for the inlet load of 224 g-S/m3․h. On the other hand, the combined system of bioscrubber and biofilter showed 100% removal for an inlet hydrogen sulfide load of up to 85 g-S/m3․h and the maximum elimination capacity of 153 g-S/m3․h for inlet loads of 224 g-S/m3․h.
