Mapo-gu (Mayor Park Gang-su) announced that it will install about 10 adsorption-decomposition type pillar-shaped sewage odor reduction facilities on Hongdae Red Road (R3, R4) by the end of this year to reduce foul odors.

Sewage odors mainly originate from domestic wastewater such as sewage and kitchen wastewater. As domestic wastewater flows through combined sewer pipes, it emits odors through rainwater inlets and manholes, causing inconvenience to residents.

The Hongdae Red Road area is a tourist special zone frequently visited by tourists, with many diverse restaurants gathered, making the possibility of sewage odor generation high. Accordingly, Mapo-gu plans to install sewage odor reduction facilities so that residents and tourists can enjoy Hongdae Red Road comfortably.

The adsorption-decomposition type pillar-shaped sewage odor reduction facilities installed by Mapo-gu use composite adsorbents to adsorb and remove odor gases at room temperature, a cutting-edge technology expected to play an effective role in eliminating sewage odors in the Hongdae Red Road area.

To reduce sewage odors, Mapo-gu regularly maintains and cleans sewage pipes and installs odor prevention devices in rainwater inlets and manholes, among other various efforts.

Park Gang-su, Mayor of Mapo-gu, emphasized, “We have installed sewage odor reduction facilities to create a pleasant tourist environment on Hongdae Red Road. Mapo-gu will do its best to create a clean Mapo by continuously managing and inspecting to eliminate sewage odors that cause inconvenience to residents.”
