A device for minimizing escape of malodorous gases from a toilet into the surrounding environment. In particular, a device for removing toilet-related odors, comprising a manifold, air-blower in fluid communication with intake and exhaust ports, that creates a horizontal flow of recirculating air at the top of the toilet bowl. The recirculating air passes through a filter that contains activated carbon and a potassium-permanganate impregnated zeolite material.
