Formula 52: Superior Wastewater Treatment with Odor-Eliminating Enzymes

Foul odors in wastewater treatment processes can be caused by hydrogen sulfide (H2S), volatile organic compounds (VOC), poor sludge management, inadequate aeration, algae blooms, and biomass decay. These strong odors, resembling rotten eggs, decaying cabbage, or ammonia, can lead to complaints from nearby residents, businesses, and schools.

Formula 52 contains specialized enzymes that target the organic compounds responsible for these unpleasant odors. By accelerating the breakdown of these odor-causing compounds, Formula 52 converts them into simpler, less odorous substances, improving air quality around wastewater treatment facilities.

Formula 52 Benefits


  • Fast acting

  • Degrades the source of odors, rather than masking them

  • Safer than lime or chemicals

  • Easy to apply

  • Eliminates odors in pig, horse, and poultry barns

  • Eliminates odors in brewery waste tanks

  • Eliminates odors in tanks, wet wells, and sludge processes

  • Effectively controls odors caused by hydrogen sulfide, amines, dimethylamine, trimethylamine, volatile fatty acids, and many other compounds

Using Formula 52

  • Dilution Rate and Dosing

    Use a tank sprayer to spray directly on sludge or odorous surfaces.

    It can also be pumped or poured into tanks, wet wells, and sludge processes to immediately eliminate the strongest of odors.

    We recommend an initial 9:1 dilution, adjusting needed.

    This concentrated formula can be diluted as much as 20:1 or as little as 4:1, depending on the severity of the odors.

    See label and SDS for safety information.
