Eliminate sewer odors with Vapex odor control system: See this Vapex project in Lafourche Parish.
Residents near the lift station at Badt Ave. and Talbot Ave. had complained about the nuisance of sewer odor smells. QSM helped Thibodaux obtain its first Vapex odor control system at this location.
The permanent installation went live in August, following a pilot test program run earlier this summer. The Vapex hydroxyl radical fog odor control system made an immediate impact.
“It’s been great,” says Kevin Chiasson, of Thibodaux’s Department of Public Works. “We ran the pilot program, and the same day we had the test unit operational, we had neighbors calling to say they could tell the difference.”
Smell the difference is more like it … The Vapex pilot program ran at this location for one week, and by the end of the 7-day period the city decided to make it a permanent fixture at this lift station.
“We were 100% impressed,” said Chiasson. “You can notice the difference almost as soon as you turn the unit on. Residents are happy. The unit is whisper quiet, and the air around this lift facility no longer has a lingering sewer smell. We are pleased with the results.”
Vapex in Louisiana
QSM represents Vapex in Louisiana, South Mississippi, and the Panhandle of Florida. Vapex designs and manufactures odor control technology deployed at wastewater plants, lift stations, and commercial facilities.
Vapex odor control units create one of nature’s most powerful oxidants, the hydroxyl radical to eliminate sewer odors. Oxidizers are a class of agents that break down organic substances, you know, the really smelly ones we’ve all experienced when riding past lift stations, or for example, the breakdown of organic compounds around sewer plants and in many commercial and industrial establishments.
QSM’s Fred Escher, Ben Giardina, and TJ Truxillo met with the City of Thibodaux, and with technicians from Vapex Odor Control Technologies to perform the installation.
This was Thibodaux’s first time in the Vapex pilot program. The program is open to any municipality that wants to experience a test run of Vapex technology.
Vapex is a cost effective, sustainable, and proven technology. It’s chemical free, low noise, low energy and produces immediate results when it comes to eliminating odors in the most vexing situations. Call QSM and see your sewer odors eliminated.
