Plant and method for the abatement of polluting components contained in biogas to be treated, wherein a plurality of filtering tanks suitable to be connected to a supply line of biogas to be treated contain each an adsorbing agent for the adsorption of the undesired polluting components when streams of biogas flow through each filtering tank. The plurality of filtering tanks are switched cyclically among them so that, during the operation of the plant, at least a first tank is temporarily isolated from the supply line and subjected to a regeneration phase of its adsorbing agent saturated by polluting components previously adsorbed, while one or more of the other filtering tanks remain connected with and are fed by the supply line with their respective adsorbing agent which continue adsorbing polluting components contained in the streams of biogas flowing through them.

A system and method to prevent an oxidizer overheating using cold side bypass for a volatile organic compounds (VOCs) treatment system with a series rotor are described, which is mainly used in the organic waste air treatment system. The system is equipped with a thermal oxidizer (to), a first heat exchanger, a second heat exchanger, a third heat exchanger, a first cold-side transporting pipeline, a first adsorption rotor, a second adsorption rotor, and a chimney. A cold-side proportional damper is installed between the first desorption-treated air pipeline and the first cold-side transporting pipeline, or it is installed on the first desorption-treated air pipeline. When the VOCs concentration becomes higher, the cold-side proportional damper can regulate the airflow to adjust the heat-recovery amount or concentration, when treating the organic waste air, it can prevent the thermal oxidizer from being overheated due to high oxidizer temperature, and protect from thermal oxidizer shut-down.
