Brandon Ambrose and his maintenance team have enough to do maintaining 230 miles of gravity sewers, 19 miles of force main and 31 pump stations. The last thing they need to deal with is odor complaints.
And yet, over the years, the team in Mount Juliet, Tennessee, fought a long battle against hydrogen sulfide odor from wastewater in force mains. They controlled the odor with chemicals, but Ambrose, waste-water supervisor, wanted a more cost-effective and sustainable way to deal with H2S.
He found it in a technology that generates pure oxygen and ozone and injects it into the wastewater at pump stations.
