An apparatus for deodorization of livestock waste includes a tank
containing livestock waste to be deodorized; a source of atmospheric air;
a source of ultraviolet light; and a magnet. Air from the source of
atmospheric air is passed by the source of ultraviolet light while
simultaneously being exposed to magnetic flux from the magnet, thereby
creating a plurality of multivalent oxygen ion allotropes. The apparatus
delivers the atmospheric air containing multivalent oxygen ion allotropes
to the livestock waste, thereby reducing odor. A method for deodorizing
livestock waste, has the steps of: pumping waste from a holding tank;
exposing atmospheric air to ultraviolet light and magnetic flux, thereby
creating a plurality of multivalent oxygen ion allotropes; exposing the
waste to the air containing the plurality of multivalent oxygen ion
allotropes; and returning the waste to the holding tank.
