FreshAWL solutions are developed to the highest standards of environmental health and safety. And while they are safe, they are by no means mild.
The powerfully safe organic chemistry of FreshAWL® WOW-Air™ prevents anaerobic and aerobic bacteria from being inhibited by hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and then allows them to flourish and undergo normal respiration. WOW-Air products effectively eliminate H2S, mercaptans and selenides that cause foul odors and system decay.
WOW-Air like all FreshAWL solutions™ has been tested in accordance with the Corrosivity to Steel (EPA 1110) test and consistent with metals used in typical wastewater treatment system as a proven corrosion inhibitor that can be applied at any point in the treatment system.
To understand their ease-of-use, all FreshAWL solutions are non-toxic, require no special DOT or OSHA handling and do not need specialized training, storage or delivery equipment.

FreshAWL solutions contain no enzymes. WOW-Air is not toxic, caustic or harmful to humans, animals or the environment. In fact, it is organic and 100% biodegradable.
A single WOW-Air molecule can eliminate the odor from 8 molecules molecules of H2S in aqueous settings or up to 200 in gaseous settings. This allows the addition rate to be much less than other chemicals; which typically work on a 1:1 ratio of molecular attack.
WOW-Air works in aqueous and gaseous applications and is designed with the ability to be introduced at any point in a treatment system. They can be injected, dripped, fogged, sprayed, and shock dosed without the use of any special tanks, pumps, hoses, agitators, or other special equipment.
WOW-Air products also include:
- WOW-Air B™ for malodor and H2S elimination in anaerobic conditions, sludge reduction in ponds, controlling "spring-turnover", mercaptan removal and vector control.
- WOW-Air B28™ is a special blend of WOW-Air B for conditions where organics are extremely high and for the purpose of treating compost or waste facilities for odor and vector control.
- WOW-Air S™ is the solution for odor control and for obtaining up to 80% sludge reduction and dewatering. Using WOW-Air S in WAS, RAS, AS or other systems allows for a non-malodorous sludge process and a considerable reduction in waste-sludge out.
NOTE: FreshAWL solutions do not contain enzymes or surfactants and are not to be used in conjunction with Ferric chloride or Chlorine.
PRODUCT SAFETY — WOW-Air products are so safe that they are GRAS certified and are not regulated by OSHA or DOT as hazardous materials. While these products are organic and 100% biodegradable, the Material Safety Data Sheets should be understood before use and may be downloaded from the top navigation bar > MSDS at: www.freshawl.com.
WOW-Air products are safe, stable, non-corrosive, does not require special handling or training and is not subject to spikes due to temperature or loading factors.
