General Odor Control Applications
Common Problems
Many odors are produced by bacteria as they degrade various organic compounds such as proteins, carbohydrates, and starches. Among the produced chemicals that cause bad odors are hydrogen sulfide, organic sulfur compounds, and organic acids.
Many odor control products on the market seek to mask these odors, and some even try to neutralize them after they have been formed but do not stop their production.
Solution
EmTec Biological Odor Eliminator (EmTec OE) was designed not to mask or neutralize the odor, but to prevent the formation of the compounds that cause bad odors. EmTec OE digests and eliminates odors at their source. It is a live blend of all natural bacteria, specifically chosen for their accelerated ability to metabolize organic material into carbon dioxide and water.
