Present condition of odor control. Odor and environmental impact assessment-future problems.

Impact Based Odor Control System

Biofilters are an effective and economically feasible technique for mitigating odor and other gaseous emissions from livestock production systems. They consist of a media containing a biofilm, where microorganisms break down compounds in livestock building exhaust air into energy and nutrients for growth and reproduction. In addition to capital costs, continuous filtering of exhaust air from me...

Design and Feasibility of an Impact-Based Odor Control System

Legislation and rural communities are increasingly requesting reductions in odor emitted from swine production facilities. If odor is regarded solely as a nuisance, and not an environmental hazard (as in this research), such that the objective of treating ventilation exhaust air is to prevent odor from impacting nearby receptors, it is unnecessary to treat exhaust air when dispersed odor is not...

Odor Pollution Control for Various Odor Emission Sources in Japan

Since the Law of Offensive Odor Control was enacted, many enterprises have made efforts to prevent odor nuisance. Odor survey was conducted at each factory and characteristics of odor emission for each kind of business were made clear. And many researches and developments have been carried out to confirm reliable technique. In order to remove odorants from exhaust gas, deodorizing plants have b...

Sewage and Wastewater Odor Control

Sewage and industrial plants located near residential areas can be subject to political and legal problems if these facilities produce unpleasant odors. In the case of a sewage plant and the associated collection system, chemicals or enzymes may be added to the liquid phase to prevent the formation of the odors. Mechanical changes to the sewage pump stations may also be made to reduce the odor....
