Abstract
The invention relates to a composition and method for controlling odors, the composition containing an activated lignin-derived complex containing a histosol compound, and optionally containing a hydrolytic enzyme, or at least one microorganism capable of providing the hydrolytic enzyme, or a combination of hydrolytic enzyme and at least one microorganism capable of providing the enzyme. The composition can be applied to holding tanks, portable toilets, pulp and paper mills, and other loci giving rise to noxious odors, in particular, to hydrogen sulfide emission.
