To map out odour, air samples are taken from potential odour sources

Mapping out odour

What odour sources are present on your site, and to what extent are they potentially significant to odour in the surrounding area? To answer to this question, OLFASCAN initially conducts an odour audit on your site. During this visit, the full operation of your site is assessed, the various emission points are listed and potential air and odour issues are identified. Based on the audit, a measurement plan is drawn up to determine the odour contribution of each source to the environment.

Modelling odour impact with ISC model

What is your company's odour impact?

Would you like to find out the odour or nuisance impact of your business on the surrounding area? OLFASCAN can help you, using two methods. On the one hand, this can be achieved through field panel measurements when the smell from your company is demarcated at different times by our certified sniffing experts. On the other hand, olfactometric analyses can also be performed on the different odour sources on your farm. The results of field panel or the olfactometric measurements are modelled in IMPACT or in another dispersion model such as AERMOD or ISC to determine the odour impact of your farm on its surroundings.

Companies with an air treatment plant or those looking for the most suitable treatment installation for their air flow can turn to OLFASCAN for help. We can help you further with questions concerning different types of installations: biofilters, activated carbon filters, air scrubbers, cold plasma injection, etc. Using olfactometric, chemical and sensory analyses, we can check the operation of your current installation or see which installation best suits the company's needs.

Characterisation airflows

OLFASCAN maps the air flows on your farm by measuring flow rates and physical parameters of the air flow and by performing olfactometric, chemical and sensory analyses.

Tailored to your business, our environmental consultants will draw up a plan/study and you will be professionally guided to the best solution for your business and its environment.
