Edmonton December CPANS Luncheon

Addressing odour issues using patterns in data

 

About the Presentation:

Nuisance odours are a major concern in many industries, causing friction between operators and the communities that surround them. But while odours are easy to detect, determining the cause and how to fix it is a massive challenge for many facilities. If operators attribute the smell to the wrong source, they run the risk of wasting valuable resources.

The Airdar technology addresses this challenge by applying advanced analytics to ambient concentration data collected at multiple locations, combined with wind data. This innovative technology has been used to determine the true source of odours and helped to manage them at several facilities. Case studies will be presented from a waste water treatment plant and a compost facility.

This presentation will demonstrate how patterns in data can be used to identify sources of odour, quantify emissions, and provide operators with actionable information to make informed decisions on managing odour at facilities.
