BIOSOLIDS WORKSHOP 1: ODOROUS EMISSIONS FROM BIOSOLIDS

摘要

Richard Stuetz and James Hayes from UNSW headed up a most interesting workshop, introduced by Nancy Penney from Water Corporation. The topic of odours is a constant and recurring source of concern for the industry, especially as urban encroachment continues to advance into former industrial zones where wastewater and biosolids treatment is generally located. Stuetz began by outlining work on odour analysis. He pointed out that only a small number of chemical species appear to be directly responsible for odour annoyance.
