Odor Control

Odor Control Concerns and YouOdor control is a significant environmental concern of manufacturing, food processing and institutional locations today, including the following issues that Nalco can help you address:

• Corporate-wide sustainable development initiatives stress environmental impact and the importance of community relationship and image.
• Water and wastewater treatment plants are often close neighbors to residential housing, and residents insist on an odor-free environment.
• Environmental enforcement agencies are beginning to view odor as a controllable pollutant and are cracking down on violators.
• Some odorous gases cause corrosion of the wastewater infrastructure and mechanical equipment. Hydrogen sulfide, for example, is the culprit in “crown corrosion” of wastewater collection systems.
