To respond tothese fears, the odour levels emitted by 3 biogas production plants were measured. In order to study themethanisation diversity, different waste treatment plants have been monitored. The waste came from farming(manure, slurry), WWTP sludge, or agro-food were compared. For each plant, 5 sources were investigated.
