Stain and odor treatment

1. A method of manufacturing a powdered pre-application composition for treatment of odors and/or stains in textiles, the method comprising:

providing a powdered buffering agent;

combining an odor-modifying agent with the powdered buffering agent;

mixing the odor-modifying agent with the powdered buffering agent;

combining a powdered oxidizing agent with the powdered buffering agent and the odor-modifying agent;

mixing, the powdered oxidizing agent with the powdered buffering agent and the odor-modifying agent to form an intermixed composition, in an ambient environment until the intermixed composition has a moisture content of less than 10%; and

sealing the intermixed composition in powdered form in a container substantially isolated from moisture.

2. The method of claim 1 , where the moisture content is less than 4%.

3. The method of claim 1 , where providing the powdered buffering agent comprises intra-mixing particles of the powdered buffering agent.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising combining and mixing a chelating agent before sealing the intermixed composition in the container.

5. The method of claim 4 , where the chelating agent is selected from a group consisting of ethylene di-amine tetra-acetic (“EDTA”), nitrileotriacetic acid (“NTA”), ethylenediaminetriacetic acid (“ED3A”), N,N′-ethylenediaminediacetic acid (“N,N′-EDDA”), nitrilotris methylenephosphonic acid (“NTMP”), diethylenetriaminepentacetic acid (“DTPA”), iminodiacetic acid (“IDA”), N-(1,2-dicarboxyethylene)-D,L-asparagine acid (“IDS”), polyaspartic acid (“DS”) {CAS No. 181828-06-8}, ethylene diamine-N,N′-disuccinic acid (“EDDS”) {CAS No. 144538-83-0}, tetrasodium of N,N-bisCcarboxymethyl) glutamic acid (“GLDA”) {CAS No. 51981-21-6}, methylglcinediacetic acid, also known as glycine-N,N-diacetic acid (“MGDA”), Trilon M Granules SG, and trilon M powder.

6. The method of claim 1 , where the odor-modifying agent is in powdered form.

7. The method of claim 1 , where the odor-modifying agent is in liquid form.

8. The method of claim 7 , where after mixing the odor-modifying agent with the powdered buffering agent, the intermixed odor-modifying agent and the powdered buffering agent are substantially dry to the touch.

9. The method of claim 7 , where combining the odor-modifying agent with the powdered buffering agent comprises spraying the odor-modifying agent over the powdered buffering agent to not over-saturate the powdered buffering agent with the liquid odor-modifying agent.

10. The method of claim 1 , where the powdered buffering agent and the odor-modifying agent are mixed for at least 30 minutes before combining the powdered oxidizing agent with the powdered buffering agent and the odor-modifying agent.

11. The method of claim 1 , where the powdered buffering agent, the odor-modifying agent, and the powdered oxidizing agent are mixed for at least 15 minutes before sealing the powdered buffering agent, the odor-modifying agent, and the powdered oxidizing agent in the container.

12. The method of claim 1 , where the powdered buffering agent is selected from a group consisting of sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, lithium carbonate, rubidium carbonate, cesium carbonate, and ammonium carbonate.

13. The method of claim 1 , where the odor-modifying agent includes an aromatic complex that is selected from a group consisting of Benzaldehyde, Bourgeonal, Cinnamaldehyde, Hexyl Cinnamaldehyde, Citronellal, Hydroxy Citronella, Citral, Cuminaldehyde, Decanal, Eugenol, Geraniol, Heptanal, Cis-3-Hexen-1-ol, Hexanal, α-Ionone, β-Ionone, γ-Ionone, Lyral, Nonanaldehyde, Octanaldehyde, Valeraldehyde, Perillaldehyde, Piperanal, Vanillin, para tert-amyl cyclohexanone, ortho tert-butyl cyclohexanol, 3-cyclohexene-1-carboxaldehyde 4-(4-hydroxy-4-methylpentyl), alpha-methyl-4-(1-methylethyl) benzenepropanal, para tert-butyl-alpha-methyldihydrocinnamic aldehyde, and 4-tert-butyl cyclohexanol.
