Abstract
The control of rendering plant odors was investigated, both as to equipment cost and design, and experimental performance. The design studies indicated that scrubbers are the most economical method. The compounds mainly responsible for rendering odors were identified. Exploratory bubbler tests were done with a list of scrubbing reagents, and the most promising were further tested in a packed scrubbing column of pilot size. Other systems tested but not as economical included direct fired incinerators, catalytic bed afterburners, and carbon bed adsorption.
