H4 (part 2) Technical Guidance Note : Assessment & Control

Part 2, "Odour Assessment & Control", is aimed equally at Regulators and Operators. It forms a background to Part 1 and describes:

  • a range of odour impact assessment methodologies
  • the collection of odour samples
  • the "measurement" of odour - using analytical and sensory techniques
  • the control of odour by design, and by operational and management techniques, and
  • the range of "end-of-pipe" odour abatement technologies available.

These cross-sectoral notes should be used in conjunction with the appropriate Sector Guidance Note to determine BAT for a specific installation, taking local factors into account.
