Novel methods and apparatuses are disclosed for the treatment of wastewater to reduce, often associated, offensive odors. Irrigation of oxygenated liquid on top of a permeable cover effectively creates an aerobic treatment zone at the top of the lagoon whereby odorous gases being produced anaerobically below the cover are metabolized within this zone before being released to the atmosphere. This same system also serves to increase evaporation from the overall waste handling system therefore substantially reducing or eliminating the need for land application of treated wastewater.

PCT No. PCT / JP96 / 00748 Sec. 371 Date Nov. 15, 1996 Sec. 102(e) Date Nov. 15, 1996 PCT Filed Mar. 22, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO96 / 29099 PCT Pub. Date Sep. 26, 1996Hydrogen sulfide is dehydrogenated to generate a HS group and an S group. The HS group is oxidized to generate sulfuric acid, which is bonded to a metal. The S group is polymerized with a CH3S group to generate methyl trisulfide or methyl tetrasulfide, which is adsorbed to an adsorbent. Methyl mercaptan is dehydrogenated, for example, to generate a CH3S group. A portion of the CH3S group is oxidized to generate methanesulfonic acid, which is bonded to a metal. Another portion of the CH3S group is polymerized with the CH3S group itself to generate methyl disulfide, at least a portion of which is adsorbed to an adsorbent. Still another portion of the CH3S group is polymerized with the S group to generate methyl trisulfide or methyl tetrasulfide, which is physically adsorbed to an adsorbent. In this manner, malodor components including hydrogen sulfide and methyl mercaptan can efficiently be removed without producing or release of harmful secondary products. A simple-structure, compact deodorizing apparatus including appropriate metal oxide catalyst and an adsorbent material suitable for achieving the above deodorizing functions is incorporated in a toilet bowl.
