So, I was thinking about odor control. If unpleasant odors come mostly from
the AE digestor, can they simply be run through a chemical burning process?
For an open system, burning with outside air is an option. For a closed
system, perhaps extra methanogenic/hydrogenic species could be included, and
their output burned with photosynthetic oxygen and noxious gases,
decomposing or oxidizing the unpleasant chemicals.
