zacarias   The aim of this study was to validate olfactometric measurements made in neighborhood of facilities that emit odours at the same time measure the impact on the nearby population before and after installation, and operation of equipment to mitigate odors.

   Olfactometric techniques used in this work are to implement a questionnaire to citizens that could be affected by odours, and then take the values obtained to know odour intensity. On the other hand, they were measured for air quality by chemical analysis. The scope of this investigation was olfactometric measurements for a period of 18 months, as well as chemical analysis. Olfactometric measurement procedures were made using the German regulation VDI 3883 Part 1 and 2.

Companioni 00   In this study, the application of the technique Gas Chromatography coupled to Ion Mobility Spectrometry (GC-IMS), for the detection of odorous volatile compounds in the indoor air of an urban waste treatment facilities, was evaluated.

   For the identification of the detected compounds, data obtained from GC-IMS and Gas Chromatography - Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry (GC-ToFMS) were used. Results obtained demonstrated that the technique GC-IMS allows the detection of different types or odorous compounds such as: alcohols, ketones, terpenes and esters, arising from treatment processes of urban waste.

imagen ramos1   Nasapp is an odour episode management system through citizen participation. It allows to have a summary of situation in real time from any portable device or computer. In this paper we studied the advantages of incorporating the automatic calculation of trajectories models of air in each record made by volunteer citizens.

   The result is a substantial improvement in the visualization of complex problems, especially when there is diversity of odour sources. It was also verified the possibility of assigning causal percentages of odour episodes in each source, verifying meteorological and geographic influences, as well as validating the assignment of odour descriptors to known odour sources.
