Odor Control Equipment
Biofilters, scrubbers, and covers: the hardware behind a good neighbor policy.
Chemical Scrubbers (Wet Scrubbers)
Use a chemical solution, often caustic and bleach, to neutralize odorous compounds in a counter-current tower.
Biofilters
Use a living microbial layer on a media bed to biologically degrade odorous compounds.
Covers & Containment
The first and cheapest odor control step: keeping foul air from escaping in the first place.
Hydrogen Sulfide Monitoring
Continuous H2S monitoring at key points confirms whether odor control equipment is actually keeping pace with generation.
Activated Carbon Adsorption
Uses activated carbon media to physically adsorb odorous compounds from an air stream.
Odor Complaint Response Protocol
A documented process for investigating and responding to a neighbor odor complaint.
Amine & Mercaptan Control
Certain odor compounds beyond hydrogen sulfide require different treatment chemistry to neutralize effectively.
Odor Dispersion Modeling
Predictive modeling used during planning to estimate how far and how strongly odors will travel to neighboring properties.
Vapor-Phase H2S Monitoring Stations
Fixed monitoring network across the plant site tracking odor-causing compound concentrations continuously.
