Good day!

I am working from a fertilizer industry. We are producing fertilizer using dry-feed steam granulation. One of my concerns is that during the processing of fertilizer using a steel-grade ammonium sulfate, there is a dinstict odor it released in the granulator after introducing steam. We analyzed the sample and showed that pyridine is present in the sample. We are planning to scrub the said compound but it will be converted to waste water disposal and if we directly dispose it, accumulation in our lagoon would make the odor release for sometime.
1. Can anybody recommend the best way to treat pyridine in the aqueous solution?
2. Maybe convert to a compound which its odor property will be removed and become a stable compound with a lesser toxic than the pyridine form?
3. Or if there are other economical and environmental way in capturing pyridine from the granulation process aside from scrubbing, can you recommend?
