Abstract

Only recently have unpleasant odours become an important environmental issue and a specific legislation is being developed and implemented. The assessment of odour impact involves several different aspects (large number of odorants, human sensitivity, different perception thresholds, etc.) and it is dealt with by the application of different techniques and methods. In this paper a review about the reliability of air dispersion models applied to odour impact assessment determined by different type of sources is presented, based on the analysis of 69 case studies published over the last 10 years. The Gaussian models were the most used technique (67% of case studies) often accompanied with results validation with experimental data. The analysis of the case studies and related validation processes highlighted the reliability of dispersion models if some critical issues, such as the presence of particular climate conditions, duration of averaging times and position of important receptors, are known and correctly managed.
空气分散模型在气味评估中的应用综述
直到最近,难闻的气味才成为一个重要的环境问题,一项具体的立法正在制定和实施中。气味影响的评估涉及几个不同的方面(大量气味、人类敏感性、不同的感知阈值等),并通过应用不同的技术和方法来处理。本文根据对过去10年中发表的69项案例研究的分析,对应用于不同类型来源的气味影响评估的空气分散模型的可靠性进行了综述。高斯模型是最常用的技术(67%的案例研究),通常伴随着实验数据的结果验证。对案例研究和相关验证过程的分析强调,如果已知并正确管理某些关键问题,如特定气候条件的存在、平均时间的持续时间和重要受体的位置,则分散模型的可靠性。

期刊介绍: IJEP provides an international forum in the field of environment and pollution and addresses early and medium-term challenges involving scientific prediction, modelling and assessment. It focuses on ground-breaking research in the science of environmental pollution, at the early scientific stage. It is one of three key journals which together offer complete coverage of environmental issues: IJETM focuses on technical/engineering, policy and management solutions for environmental problems, and IJGEnvI focuses on future, longer-term environmental scenarios, ecological economics, climate change and biodiversity.
