Odor Control
Microbial and photo-ion catalytic deodorization for process odors and waste-handling facilities.
Where Odor Control fits
Odor control systems target reduced sulfur compounds and process smells where full VOC oxidation trains are unnecessary. Microbial and photo-ion options cover industrial and compact installations.

Modular design
How the system works
Odorous air contacts a biological or photo-ion catalytic stage designed for the odor profile and airflow. Systems are sized for continuous or intermittent duty at wastewater, waste, and process vents.
- 01Collect and balance odorous air at the source.
- 02Condition humidity or remove particulate where required.
- 03Treat in a microbial or photo-ion catalytic stage.
- 04Monitor outlet odor and maintain media or modules.
Choose by process conditions
| Configuration | Description | Best fit | Source metric |
|---|---|---|---|
| Microbial Deodorization | Biological treatment for biodegradable odor compounds. | Wastewater, farms, food, waste handling, rubber, and selected process vents. | Project-specific |
| Photo-Ion Catalytic Unit | Compact oxidation and ionization for lower-load odor duty. | Pump stations, laboratories, food-waste rooms, and smaller facilities. | Project-specific |
| Industrial Photo-Ion System | Scaled modular equipment for continuous industrial odor streams. | Rubber, plastics, tire, refinery, and waste-treatment applications. | Project-specific |
Typical pollutants
- Reduced sulfur compounds
- Wastewater odors
- Waste-handling odors
- Low-concentration process smells
Engineering features
- Source collection design
- Humidity and residence-time control
- Modular treatment stages
- Low-pressure-drop options
- Accessible maintenance zones
Selection cautions
- Odor chemistry and peak load must be measured before selecting a technology.
- High-concentration VOC streams may require adsorption or oxidation instead of odor polishing alone.
