non-ascii characters in bash script and unicode

Hi folks

I am kinda new to the linux world.

I wish to achieve the same function as this thread has, but rather than filenames, I have a huge file which contains several of these accented characters that I need to remove. How can I use the above solution for thaT?

A sample of the file is below. Any help is appreciated.

Landkreis Demmin|Adolf-Pompe-StraÃŸe Am BrÃ¼ll 17| ZÃ¼rich
HeukenstraÃŸe 6|MÃ¶nchengladbach

I just posted a reply to another thread that asks the same question (as the last post, not the OP).
