“…Some of these studies focus on the determination of the minimum separation distance between possible sources of malodors (agricultural enterprises, solid waste landfills, plants for treatment of waste, etc.) and residential areas (Nicolas et al ., ; Guo et al ., ; Schauberger et al, ). These works are very important for guidelines about land use planning.…”

Environmental odor perception: testing regional differences on heterogeneity with application to odor perceptions in the area of Este (Italy)

One way to evaluate the hazard of environmental degradation of the quality of life in a place, because of bad odors, is to consider the heterogeneity of possible types and of possible sources of malodors. In the literature, the problem of comparing heterogeneities of types or of sources of odors in two geographical areas has not yet been dealt with the due attention. The main reason is that methodological proposals for tests for heterogeneity comparisons are very rare. We propose a permutation test based on the comparison of linear combinations of sampling indices of heterogeneity. The good power behavior, especially for small differences of the degrees of heterogeneity of the two compared areas, is proved through a Monte Carlo simulation study. The application of the test for heterogeneity comparisons on the data of the survey on odor perceptions in the region of Este (Italy) performed in 2010 shows the usefulness of the proposed methodology, which can be added, as a complementary analysis, to the classical established techniques for studying the environmental impact of odors like dispersion models, dynamic olfactometry, smell maps determination, and others.

“…It would be therefore convenient to normalize field assessment techniques at an international level. In this sense, the Sniffing Team Method or plume measurements such as those established by the German VDI 3940 could be more realistic to evaluate the impact of livestock odour sources, which are by nature variable and discontinuous in time (Nicolas et al, 2008).…”

Odours generated in livestock buildings constitute one of the most relevant air quality issues of intensive livestock production. Reducing nuisance episodes related to odour exposure is therefore essential for a sustainable livestock production. In this study, the state-of-the-art on odour mitigation techniques in livestock housing is critically reviewed. Scientific advances in the last decade are revised and research needs are also identified. The complex nature of livestock odours is firstly reviewed and examined. Then, the most relevant odour control strategies are analyzed in terms of present knowledge and future needs. The strategies considered are: nutritional strategies, manure additives, building design, air filtration, manure covers, manure treatment systems and windbreaks. Finally, future research needs and priorities when establishing mitigation techniques are identified. Despite important recent advances, there are still some challenges for scientists, producers and regulators, particularly related to field evaluation of odours. Therefore, to control livestock odours effectively, using standardized f ield assessment techniques will be required. Also, investigating measurement and model errors may be useful to better understand the limitations of the current methods, as well as to identify research priorities.

“…However, the GCMS does not offer any practical information about the perception of the odorants, which is subjective and not generally related to their concentrations in a clear way [11]. For this reason, odors are commonly measured with a second method and third method but sensorial method is preferable at the source measurement since that method can give the emission value instead of concentration only and the absent of a variable odor background that may strongly Until now, the suitable types of odour assessment technology in Malaysia still cannot be found and at the same time, there is no odour regulation concerning the specific odour parameter stated in the Environmental Quality Act 1974.…”
