Chinese officials are yet to announce whether they will opt for “original scent” or “alpine rush” ammunition.
The deodorant cannon were invented by employees at the Gao’antun Garbage Landfill Plant, in Beijing’s suburbs, after local officials were forced to apologise for the foul smells coming from the dump.
Other devices, such as odour-eating sheets were also brought in, along with a machine that extracts the foul-smelling gases and uses them to generate electricity.
