Abstract: The invention is a composition, device, system or method for mitigating odors or other contaminants from a target environment. The present invention relates to devices that contain a formulation for removing, in whole or in part, foul odors from the air. In certain embodiments the present invention provides odor-mitigating reagents that are delivered by means of a spray dispenser. The present invention also contemplates applications where the invention can be delivered via a foam or gel dispenser. Certain embodiments of the invention therefore particularly relate to devices such deodorizers, air fresheners and the like.

Abstract: A self-contained foul air eliminator comprises a housing with an intake port an impeller, a converter, and an exhaust port. The converter includes an oxidizing agent and an aqueous solution of a promoter. The eliminator is typically portable to eliminate malodors foul air from a toilet or another environment. The device is powered by a battery or a household current.

Abstract: A converter for transforming malodorous components of foul air comprises a porous layer having an oxidizing agent and an aqueous solution of a promoter. The promoter is preferably a water-soluble ethylene oxide or propylene oxide adduct. The layer is typically used in a gas-handling system to eliminate the foul air from a toilet or a bedpan. The layer can be used alone or with a second layer of activated charcoal. A Lewis acid and/or a Lewis base can be also used with the converter.
