Odor pollution

Odor is an important environmental pollution issue because it can affect public amenity and the community's quality of life. Attention to odor as an environmental nuisance has been growing as a result of increasing industrialization and the awareness of people's need for a clean environment. Efforts to abate odor levels are necessary in order to maintain the quality of the environment. Understanding the odor problem and the origin and dispersion of odors, abatement and detection methods are, therefore, very important aspects of odor pollution in the environment.

Many activities emit odors into the atmosphere, such as, for example:

  • Agricultural produce industries
  • Bitumen pre-mix or hot-mix industries
  • Breweries or distilleries
  • Chemical industries or works
  • Chemical storage facilities
  • Composting and related reprocessing or treatment facilities
  • Contaminated soil treatment works
  • Drum or container reconditioning works
  • Electricity generation works
  • Livestock intensive industries
  • Livestock processing industries
  • Mineral processing or metallurgical works
  • Paper, pulp or pulp products industries
  • Petroleum works
  • Sewage treatment systems
  • Waste facilities
  • Wood or timber milling or processing works
  • Wood preservation works
