Treating Ventilation Exhaust Air for Odor Control
نویسنده
چکیده
and Implications Odor control for swine facilities has focussed on storage and the land application phases of manure handling. A third component, ventilation exhaust air, has received little attention. This research was targeted at reducing odor emitted from ventilation exhaust air by filtering odor carrying dust particles. The ultimate objective is to develop a system that could be implemented easily, has a low maintenance schedule, and is inexpensive to operate.

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...
متن کاملImpact 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...

Introduction: Air pollution in industrial work environments has adverse effects on worker health, for example, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and asthma. These diseases impose direct and indirect costs on society. In hierarchy controls, local exhaust ventilation is considered an "engineering control" to remove or control contaminants released in indoor work environments. It is one of the...
متن کاملAir Quality and Emission Measurement Methodology
Reliable measurements of air quality and emissions at large livestock buildings with inherently large spatial and temporal variations of pollutant concentrations are relatively difficult and expensive. Appropriate methodologies for such measurements are not readily apparent and techniques and strategies vary widely. Several important technical issues need to be addressed by an air pollutant emi...
متن کاملImproving microbial air quality in air-conditioned mass transport buses by opening the bus exhaust ventilation fans.
The air quality in air-conditioned mass transport buses may affect bus drivers' health. In-bus air quality improvement with the voluntary participation of bus drivers by opening the exhaust ventilation fans in the bus was implemented in the Seventh Bus Zone of Bangkok Mass Transit Authority. Four bus numbers, including bus numbers 16, 63, 67 and 166, were randomly selected to investigate microb...
