Abstract
The present method for deodorizing ammonia odor in an ammonia-containing environment includes adding to the environment a non-toxic, aqueous, acidified amine-based ammonia deodorizing composition in an amount effective to deodorize the ammonia odor in the environment. In addition, a method for preparing the ammonia deodorizing compositions and the compositions produced thereby is disclosed.
Claims11
A method for deodorizing ammonia odor in an ammonia odor-containing non-aquatic environment, comprising applying to a surface or substrate in contact with the non-aquatic environment a non-toxic aqueous acidified amine-based ammonia deodorizing composition in an amount effective to deodorize the ammonia odor in the non-aquatic environment, wherein the ammonia deodorizing composition comprises an amine-based compound having at least one functional amine group selected from the group consisting of an alkanolamine, aliphatic amine and polyamine, the acidified amine-based ammonia deodorizing composition being acidified to a pH which is non-toxic to plant and animal life.
