Photoionization is the Future of Wastewater Odor Control (Ambio)
Photoionization (PI) utilizes ultraviolet light and a catalyst to kill odors. The process starts with UV treatment of the odorous air as it passes through the PI reactor chamber. The UV treatment creates free radicals (O- 2, OH-, O3, etc.) that begin to oxidize the odor causing compounds. After the UV treatment, the air passes…
