Odor Profiling of Environmental Odors

Abstract

There is a need to standardize a field procedure for odor profiling of environmental odors. There is a need to drive the analytical procedures toward a practical, useful method for profiling odors in contrast to highly complex instrumentation or lab-based techniques. A technique for profiling odors, and tracking odor sources will be outlined. An example of its successful use in profiling odors at a wastewater treatment plant will be described.
