A Leader in the Fight Against Hydrogen Sulfide

Odor/corrosion control and hydrogen sulfide prevention represents one of the biggest problems facing the wastewater treatment industry today. Aulick has combined the chemistry of hydrogen sulfide encapsulation and prevention creating an improved and more effective Nitra-Nox.

Nitra-Nox is a proven solution used to prevent the production of hydrogen sulfide in collection system wastewater. Hydrogen sulfide is produced when the anaerobic bacteria feeds on sulfates. Nitra-Nox provides an alternative oxygen source, preventing the production of hydrogen sulfide. With our latest encapsulation technology, Nitra-Nox can also be fed where hydrogen sulfide is already present. Nitra-Nox will encapsulate the hydrogen sulfide and prevent it from being expressed and enable future production to be prevented.

Technical Details & Test Data

Nitra-Nox, Odor Control for Hydrogen Sulfide Prevention

Nitra-Nox - Nitra-Nox, Odor Control For Hydrogen Sulfide Prevention

 

Discharge H₂S Liquid Levels

Pump Station 1 6.5 ppm
Pump Station 2 2 ppm
Pump Station 3 10 ppm
Pump Station 4 0 ppm

The hydrogen sulfide coming from Pump Station 1 will be inhibited by feeding at Pump Station 1. The hydrogen sulfide coming from Pump Station 4 will also have to be treated at Pump Station 4. The hydrogen sulfide coming from Pump Station 2 is further evaluated and it’s determined that the majority of the hydrogen sulfide is coming from the gravity flowing into Pump Station 2. Feeding Nitra-Nox at Manhole 2 will inhibit the hydrogen sulfide at Pump Station 2 and discharge into manhole 1 prior to the wastewater treatment plant. Nitra-Nox is available in 55 gallon drums, 330 gallon totes, and bulk truck loads of 3000 gallons or more.

Key Feed Locations for Nitra-Nox in a Sewage Collection System with Odor Problems

It’s not ‘one size fits all’ when it comes to odor control in the sewage collection system. The odor itself and location of odor must first be identified. Next, the location where the odor is produced and concentration of the odor must be known. In the situation presented, odor complaints were originating at manholes receiving all flow prior to the wastewater treatment plant, and at the air release valve on the force main from Pump Station 1 in the diagram.

To alleviate the odors, Aulick evaluated the entire collection system. For the hydrogen sulfide issue at manhole 1 prior to the wastewater treatment plant, the entire system was tested for hydrogen sulfide using an OdaLog gas detection logger. For the odor issue at the release valve, the hydrogen sulfide level was measured at Pump Station 1.

The 0 ppm reading indicates a perfect location to feed Nitra-Nox and inhibit the production of hydrogen sulfide in the force main. See diagram continued on next page.
