Odor Control - Municipal Wastewater

Noxious odor and widespread corrosion are significant problems in wastewater systems, resulting in resident complaints and expensive capital infrastructure projects.

ECO2 SuperOxygenation technology may be your solution.

Odors and corrosion are often the result of hydrogen sulfide formation in pump stations, pipelines, pretreatment systems and headworks facilities. ECO2 technology eliminates the problem by preventing hydrogen sulfide formation and can be added to current facilities and treatment systems in virtually any location or footprint.

ECO2 SuperOxygenation systems for water and wastewater treatment are designed and produced by ECO Oxygen Technologies, LLC, an independent company headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana. The technology is the pioneering effort of Dr. Richard Speece, Centennial Professor Emeritus of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Vanderbilt University, who invented the Speece Cone, a device originally used to add oxygen to the bottom of lakes to enhance downstream fisheries.

In municipal applications, ECO2 technology eliminates hydrogen sulfide odor and corrosion by dissolving enough pure oxygen in wastewater to prevent the formation of hydrogen sulfide and its rotten-egg odor. The ECO2 SuperOxygenation system saves money on alternative chemicals, eliminates the need for scrubbers and traditional treatment systems, provides pretreatment without increasing total dissolved solids, and eliminates the costly handling and disposal of hazardous by-products associated with scrubbers and chemical treatment.
