Odour Study Day
Silsoe Odours Ltd and ADAS
at WrestPark, Silsoe, Bedfordshire
Thursday 9th March 2017

Silsoe Odours Ltd and ADAS hold Odour Study Days on four occasions each year.

This popular one day event is aimed at increasing awareness about the objective measurements of odours, and how measurement and modelling techniques can be used to address odour nuisance and planning problems. The topic areas are of relevance to a wide range of specialists including operators of odorous processes, odour abatement plant suppliers and installers, planning and environmental consultants, wastewater treatment specialists and regulators.
Participants will have the opportunity to visit the Silsoe Odours laboratory to see, and experience, how odour concentration analysis is undertaken to the BSEN13725:2003 European Standard. All delegates will have the opportunity to have their olfactory senses assessed using the Standard's odour panel selection criteria, and will be issued with a certificate to show the results. This assessment provides participants with an indication of their sensitivity to odours and could thus be useful to those involved in assessing "nuisance" odours.
