Odor Ranger Plus
The odors found in landfills, wastewater treatment facilities
and wastewater collection systems frequently result from anaerobic
conditions in the resident biological systems. Anaerobic conditions can create:
Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) — Anaerobic
environments support microorganisms
that generate sulfides including malodorous hydrogen sulfide. At a pH of 7, hydrogen
sulfide is released from the liquid creating odor, corrosion,
and potentially hazardous atmospheres.
Mercaptans — Mercaptans, which account for many odor complaints, are a group of foul smelling
molecules that form during the
anaerobic metabolism of sulfur-containing
amino acids and other sulfur-containing organic
compounds.
Volatile Fatty Acids — The anaerobic fermentation of sugars
and certain amino acids gives rise to the
formation of volatile organic acids, including
volatile fatty acids, which also cause objectionable
odors.
The
specialized bacterial strains found in Odor
Ranger Plus™ neutralize
all three — sulfides, mercaptans, and volatile fatty acids. In fact, Odor
Ranger Plus™ controls a broad range of sulfur and nitrogen-containing compounds including:
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S)
Mercaptans
Other reduced sulfur compounds
Amines
Ammonia
Organic acids
Volatile fatty acids
Odor Ranger Plus™ can be applied full strength or diluted
either manually
or using automatic fogging systems. It offers fast-acting and long-lasting odor relief for:
Landfills
Remediation projects
Poultry, dairy and hog operations
Compost
