Patent ID: 6997139

Claim:
An atomization system for odor control in a livestock storage facility, consisting of: a reservoir for holding a quantity of an odor control product, wherein the odor control product consists essentially of a mixture of approximately 43.5% vegetable oil, approximately 4% natural acidic compound, approximately 9% alcohol, an approximately 43.5% water; a pump in communication with the reservoir; a circulation loop running throughout the livestock storage facility and communicating with the pump and the reservoir, wherein the circulation loop is constructed from plastic pipe and an electrostatic charge is induced on particles of the odor control product; a connecting line connecting the pump with the reservoir; a sensor for detecting flow of the odor control product from the reservoir to the pump through the connecting line; a plurality of atomization nozzles connected with the circulation loop for distribution of the odor control product onto surfaces of the storage facility and the livestock, wherein the atomization nozzles are connected with the circulation loop in a pattern in which the nozzles are spaced approximately ten feet from one another; a bypass loop having: a ball valve inserted into the circulation loop prior to a connection between the circulation loop and the reservoir; a bypass line connected with a first area of the circulation loop prior to the ball valve and extending to a second area of the circulation loop near the connection of the circulation loop with the pump; a check valve in the bypass line; and wherein the ball valve is closed to separate the circulation loop from the reservoir; a water pump connected with the circulation loop; a water supply line connected with the water pump; a plurality of fans throughout the livestock storage facility; and a control unit in communication with the fans and the water pump, wherein the control unit cycles the fans and water pump on and off to control the temperature in the livestock storage facility.
