– **Hydroxyl Radical Treatment:** Hydroxyl radicals, highly reactive molecules, destroy odor-causing bacteria and decompose odors.
– **Activated Carbon Adsorption:** Activated carbon traps and absorbs odor molecules, preventing their release into the air.
– **Bio-Encapsulation:** Odor-neutralizing enzymes encapsulate odor molecules, preventing their spread and allowing natural degradation.
– **Encapsulation:** Polymers or encapsulants trap odor particles, creating a barrier that prevents their release.
