Current Industry Perspectives
Odor and blockages are two of the more common maladies associated with the waste systems.
Odors emanating from a holding tank are indeed a smelly nuisance…. In past years it was common practice to simply mask the odors in the holding tanks and to combat the consolidation of the solid waste by using strong chemicals. In some cases, it seemed these chemicals were more obnoxious than the odor from the waste.
And be aware that tank odors are not exclusive to the black water holding tank. Oils, soaps and other residue commingling and fermenting in the grey tank can also produce their own olfactory objections. This is especially true when old habits have us leave the grey termination valve open while connected in the campsite. Grey tank matter will adhere to the walls of the tank and quickly dry out, leaving us to the mercy of nature's own method for biodegradation which is smelly at best, as anyone experienced in composting can attest.
