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 $56;g-S/m^3{cdot}hr$, while the removal efficiency was decreased with the increase of inlet load. The biofilter showed 100% removal efficiency up to inlet load of $126;g-S/m^3{cdot}h$ and the maximum elimination capacity of $126;g;S/m^3{cdot}h$ for the inlet load of $224;g-S/m^3{cdot}h$. On the other hand, the combined system of bioscrubber and biofilter showed 100% removal for an inlet hydrogen sulfide load of up to $85;g-S/m^3{cdot}h$ and the maximum elimination capacity of $153;g-S/m^3{cdot}h$ for inlet loads of $224;g-S/m^3{cdot}h$.
