The objective of this research has been to develop advanced odor treatment techniques, from the existing conventional ones and to provide more efficient solutions in those industrial processes that by their location or characteristics need greater efficiencies.
The experience has been developed at the Helados Alacant Factory and its EDARi. The technologies studied were: Bioscrubber, Nanoparticles of Zerovalent Iron and Photoreactors.

Abstract
The objective of this research has been to develop advanced odor treatment techniques, from the existing conventional ones and to provide more efficient solutions in those industrial processes that by their location or characteristics need greater efficiencies.
The experience has been developed at the Helados Alacant Factory and its EDARi. The technologies studied were:
- Bioscrubber: absorption tower that has been coupled to the biological reactor so that the chemical degradation of the odorous compounds is produced by microorganisms.
- Nanoparticles of Zerovalent Iron: They have been dosed in the absorption tower to react with the sulfur-containing compounds responsible for odors.
- Photoreactor: absorption tower that has been coupled to a tubular reactor with a UV lamp allowing ultraviolet light to eliminate odorous compounds.
The study evaluated the sulfur compounds removal capacity and VOCs, and calculated the conditions required for 99% efficiency of the systems for the WWTP conditions.
