  1. 3 Proven Odour Control Technologies In Wastewater Odour Removal Everyone knows that wastewater smells a lot. Even on a cold day when there is no wind, the odour still originates from wastewater treatment plants. This is why the wastewater treatment plants face enhanced pressure for reducing odour emissions around communities and workers. This is the reason why Odour control is evolving into an essential component of wastewater treatment plant odor control But figuring out the best solution for eliminating the foul odours from extensive facilities is easy to say than do. Some wastewater treatment plants execute the ventilation systems that mostly see the best results for the level of investment done. Other methods such as masking agents do less than the temporary covering of odours and offer significantly less relief. It is time to behave proactively. The managers of the facilities who often fail to take a proactive approach for controlling odour risk isolating themselves from the whole community and facing some of the harsh penalties. This has become easier because of the social media environment where people can go online and complain about the odour drifting in the site. All these complaint's results in some unwanted attention and also some regulatory fines and penalties. So, the proactive approach is taking the best action to control the odours before they cause any issue. GET IN TOUCH WITH US :- info@aqoza.com

  2. Every site, along with its odour problems, is unique, and the solutions should be customized to meet these challenges. When an Odour control products are executed perfectly, both neighboring communities and employees of the treatment plant will benefit. In the market, several odour controlling technologies are available but selecting the right technology is very important. It assists in removing the odour efficiently and running the plant with less operating cost. Here are three proven odour control technologies for wastewater treatment odour removal: •Activated carbon adsorption system: It works on the principle of adsorption, which absorbs the gas molecule that causes odour, releases it to the media surface and then oxidizes the odorous gas to the atmosphere. For odour removal, filtration media are chosen that are best for removing the hydrogen sulphide, Mercaptans and VOCs. Activated carbon media last for a long time, are clean in place, do not need chemicals for cleaning, and are mainly environment friendly. With this technology and odour removal, and efficiency of 99.9 per cent can be easily achieved. •Chemical oxidation: Here, water scrubbing using good oxidizing or neutralizing chemicals is being used to remove the odours. For wastewater odours, sodium hypochlorite or sodium hydroxide or a mixture of these two can be used for oxidation and odour neutralization. For sporadic odour removal applications for big plants, this is one of the best solutions. Keeping a stock of and management of chemical is tedious task in this process.

  3. •Biological oxidation: Biological systems are being selected for municipal or industrial wastewater treatment plants by considering the low operating cost for the long run. Biological oxidation technologies are categorized into three different processes known as a biofilter, bio-trickling filter and bio scrubber. The biofilter is an old version where the natural media such as stones, peas etc., are getting used for the growing surface. These units usually require huge areas that need consistent humidification of odorous gases, and the odour removing efficiency ranges from 70-75 per cent. This biofilter is replaced by a bio-trickling filter or bio-scrubber, where it uses vertical packed towers to grow microorganisms. These needless areas than biofilter and the media life are 10-15 years. In Buotrickling filters, the misting water is drained off and does not re-circulate, but in bio scrubbers, the water is re-circulated consistently. In Bio-scrubber application, odour removal efficiency can be 99%. To avoid the odour nuisance and to have constant odour removal effectiveness, municipal treatment plants are getting adapted to the two-stage system that is biologically followed by activated carbon adsorption. Because of this combination, even if biological unit process stops, the activated carbon unit can maintain the required odour removal efficiency. GET IN TOUCH WITH US :- info@aqoza.com
