[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Jungnang-gu (Mayor Ryu Kyung-gi) held a commissioning ceremony for the sewage odor reduction facility at Myeonmok Retention Basin on the 3rd.

At the ceremony, residents living near the Myeonmok Retention Basin were informed about the current status of sewage odor generation and reduction methods, and had the opportunity to directly experience the odor reduction effect when the facility was operating versus when it was not.

The photochemical odor reduction facility measures the temperature and pressure inside and outside the sewage pipes in real time, deodorizes and sterilizes the odor, and converts it into clean air before releasing it outside.

Since the installation of the reduction facility at the end of the Myeonmok Retention Basin in December last year, monitoring conducted from January to April this year confirmed an actual 93% odor reduction effect.

Ryu Kyung-gi, Mayor of Jungnang-gu, stated, "Through the installation of the odor reduction facility at Myeonmok Retention Basin, a pleasant living environment free of odor has been established." He added, "We will continue to do our best to reduce urban sewage odors through systematic odor reduction projects for sewage facilities."
