Hazardous odor markers from sewage wastewater: A step towards simultaneous assessment, dearomatization and removal

Current Status and Outlook of Odor Removal Technologies in Wastewater Treatment Plant

“…are biological approaches for odor control. Physical/chemical technologies have been broadly implemented since their rapid start-up, low empty bed residence time (EBRT) and extensive experience in design and operation [20][21][22][23][24]. These techniques are often based on the transfer of odorants from the gas emission to either a solid (adsorption) or liquid (absorption) phase.…”

Reviewing putative industrial triggering in pemphigus: cluster of pemphigus in the area near the wastewater treatment plant

“…There are also industrial “masked thiols”, compounds with disulfide bridge (–S–S–), potent into forming an active sulfhydryl (–SH) group during biotransformation, e.g. dimethyl disulfide (DMDS) originating in the wastewater treatment plant from anaerobic fermentation [ 36 , 58 , 59 ], liquid dimethyl trisulfide, present in pemphigus-exacerbating Allium family [ 61 ] or bis 1-(methylthio)ethyl disulfide [ 62 ]. All of these compounds are theoretically able to trigger a range of pemphigus diseases (mostly PF) via ingestion or topical application due to (–SH) radical [ 63 ].…”

Use of Sensory Analysis Methods to Evaluate the Odor of Food and Outside Air

“…As in the case of odour emissions from municipal landfills, the formation of odours in the wastewater treatment plant is caused by the decomposition of organic matter and may lead to a deterioration in life quality, and may even adversely affect the health condition of the inhabitants of the affected areas(Gostelow, Parsons, & Stuetz, 2001; Aatamila, et al, 2011).Sensory analysis methods are also used to identify odourous substances from municipal wastewater treatment plants(Agus, Zhang, & Sedlak, 2012). They are used also to determine the concentrations of airborne compounds generating odours(Rajbansi, Sarkar, & Hobbs, 2013; Littarru, 2007) and to determine the maximum permissible level concentrations of odourous substances on the premises(Stellacci, Liberti, Notarnicola, & Haas, 2010). The methods, that are Downloaded by [New York University] at 12:used to identify odourous substances and determine the concentrations of compounds that cause unpleasant sensory impressions, are the olfactometry methods(Rajbansi, Sarkar, & Hobbs, 2013; Littarru, 2007;Stellacci, Liberti, Notarnicola, & Haas, 2010;Micone & Guy, 2007; Baltrenas, Andrulevicius, & Zuokaite).…”

Dynamic olfactometry(van Harreveld & Heeres, 1995; Hangartner, Hartung, Paduch, & Pain, 1989) is used to determine the level of odour emissions from the plants for purification of sediments(Uggetti, Ferrer, Molist i Garcı´a, 2011).…”
