The following method uses hydrogen peroxide injection with the use of a metering pump, which provides extra strength oxidation for strong odors and high levels of hydrogen sulfide and bacteria (which can be linked with sulfur odors). This system also provides disinfection, giving you bacteria free water.
The hydrogen peroxide would feed into a small inline mixer to provide enough mixing for the solution to react with the sulfur and sulfur-reducing bacteria in the water. Finally, the water would pass through a carbon filter to take out oxidized particulate matter and any lingering hydrogen peroxide.
We think this will be the absolute best combination of components you could use without going over your budget.
