Oxidation system eliminates hydrogen sulfide odor

Conventional air stripping methods can be used to remove dissolved H2S from potable water supply. When H2S is released to the atmosphere, it can cause serious odor problems in the area surrounding the plant. The town of Jupiter, Florida, solved its H2S problem by treating the air stripper emissions with a catalytic liquid oxidation unit that removes 98+ percent of the H2S, converting it to non-hazardous elemental sulfur in the form of a 'cake' suitable for landfill disposal.
