We claim: 1. A method for preventing hydrogen sulfide odor generation in a sulfur species-containing aqueous medium, which comprises adding to the aqueous medium an effective amount for the purpose of a sulfide scavenger treatment including a non-biological combination of (a) glyoxal and (b) magnesium nitrate, wherein from about 2-6 ppm of the treatment is added to the aqueous medium, wherein said aqueous medium has a pH of about 6.5-8, and wherein the weight ratio of (a) to (b) is from about 1:3 to 1000:1. 2. The method as recited, in claim 1, wherein the addition is conducted at a temperature of from about 0째 C. to about 50째 C. 3. The method as recited in claim 1, wherein said aqueous medium comprises a wastewater medium. 4. The method as recited in claim 1, wherein the weight ratio of (a) to (b) is about 3:1.
