Where do the Worst Industrial Odors Originate?

Fish, dairy, pharma and chemical manufacturing, industrial processes of all kinds, and municipal treatment facilities all generate volatilized chemical compounds - odors. Whether controlling those odors is mandated by zoning or statute, or simply part of the facility’s environmental/ health & safety commitment, it’s an important component of good community relations, and the ability to attract and retain talent.

Industrial Odor Management

Tri-Mer packed tower odor control systems remove odors from industrial and municipal sources to levels that are undetectable. They are the industry standard for the most difficult odors, e.g. H₂S from dairy waste dryers, rendering operations, and surströmming (fermented herring), all of which can be detected below 1 ppm.

Tri-Mer odor control systems use single or multiple stage wet sections; each alkali or acidic, depending on the odor source. Packing depth is determined by gas composition and the efficiency specified.

Mercaptans, amines and dozens of industrial odor causes are reliably eliminated with the Tri-Mer system. Carbon systems can be incorporated if required. Systems can be engineered for maximum flexibility, incorporating future process conditions.

Tri-Mer’s packed tower multi-stage system is guaranteed to operate free of detectable odor at the stack under all operating conditions. Notably, they can be engineered to simultaneously handle particulate, so dusts from manufacturing, mixing, packaging and other operations can be ducted to one system and a clear stack achieved.
