Odor control

Yara has, over the past 10 years, developed products and solutions for odor control and hydrogen sulfide abatement.

Yara’s portfolio of products includes specifically developed blends of nitrate that are highly efficient in the prevention of hydrogen sulfide (H₂S), while fighting unpleasant odors and corrosion. We also market additional products and solutions that offer a complete package to protect workers from exposure to this toxic gas, prolong the lifespan of infrastructure and prevent the spread of bad odors in the communities around wastewater installations and sewers.

For the oil industry, these solutions can also improve the oil recovery levels of a well or oil field.

These solutions are marketed under the Nutriox, Econox and PetroCare brands around the world.
