Odor control systems helps in addressing the odor issues in Industrial, Hospitality, Commercial, Healthcare, IT Parks, Healthcare, Manufacturing Units, Restaurants and other sectors.
Emission of volatile organic compounds (VOC) and hazardous air pollutants (HAP), and containment and processing are able to pressurize municipal and industrial waste water facilities to re-formulate. This helps in achieving the desired emission level. The choice of containment method does have a specific significant effect on the cost and performance of the installed odor control systems.

What are the methods of containment?
The method of containment that is cheaper in cost is the non-rigid system using a membrane, film or fabric placed over the offending area. It is always difficult to maintain a negative pressure of air, operationally, without making the system collapse. It is very difficult to achieve the required air circulation, though it may be possible to get a greater degree of tightness. It has certain restrictions as far as access is concerned. Since it is unable to carry heavy load caused by rain and snow, the system is considered inaccessible other than in restricted areas. The frequent repair of tear in the material has made it impractical to several designs.
For areas where the instruments and other components are supported, use semi-rigid systems. These effective odor control systems do not offer rigidity or capability of containment. Any kind of planking in the form of corrugated light weight aluminum and steel or fiberglass or wood should be discouraged. Along with higher operational costs, their use can result in dangerous platforms that lack good containment properties.
Odor control installations use raised rigid structures. These structures definitely offer high containment efficiencies but also have high operating costs. They also need bigger air handling components like blowers, large fans, ducts, scrubbers, and heavy-duty electrical wiring and accessories.
Good access for O & M is offered by raised structures. They have poor access when major work is called for. As a result of large volumetric space, the contained atmospheres can be much corrosive to equipment above water level. Structures that are designated as confined spaces will incur costs that are caused by obligatory training, permitting and others.
Using flat covers are safer, as it reduces air volumes. It opens directly over equipment and has low equipment cost. The lower cost is due to smaller volumes of air. This is the result of geometric configuration and reduced number of required air exchanges. These long-lasting odor control methodologies also eliminate the need for compliance with confined space regulations. Good access for equipment removal and maintenance is also offered by them.
Hence, it is hopeful that this article has discussed all the methods of containment so that you find it helpful to initiate an odor free environment by using these methods.
