TLDR
It is demonstrated that a fluctuating plume dispersion model can be used to give realistic estimates of odour frequencies around a point source, when the odour threshold of the chimney gases is determined by sensory methods.About:

Measuring odours in the environment vs. dispersion modelling: A review
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review the techniques that can be adopted for measuring odours in the field, particularly discussing how such techniques can be used in alternative or in combination with odour dispersion models for odour impact assessment purposes, and how the results of field odour measurements and model outputs can be related and compared to each other.

A review of odour impact criteria in selected countries around the world
TL;DR: A critical review of odour regulations in selected jurisdictions of 28 countries is presented and common elements of mature and effective odour regulation frameworks are identified and an integrated multi-tool strategy is recommended.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dispersion of odorous gases in the atmosphere - Part I: Modeling approaches to the phenomenon.
TL;DR: Nine approaches that explore several solutions within the Gaussian domain for the atmospheric dispersion problem are proposed in software named ODODIS (ODOr DISpersion Software), and this software was developed to test the different solutions.
Acquisition, Review, and Correlation of Odor Literature for the Air & Waste Management Association EE-6 Odour Committee
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a survey of the impact of ODOURS on humans and discuss the role of humans in ODOUR perception and impact on human health and well-being.
Journal ArticleDOI
Odour measurement and odour policy in Germany
TL;DR: In this article, the development of measurement possibilities and development of odour policy are connected, because formulation of standards as well as control of compliance with these standards need appropriate measurement methods.

Statistical Properties of a Fluctuating Plume Dispersion Model
TL;DR: In this article, a mathematical model of turbulent dispersion has been presented and rationalized, by separating the total plume dispersion into two components, spreading and meandering, and various properties of the resulting material concentration distribution are then deduced.

An experimental study on atmospheric diffusion
TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive formula for the variation of the vertical standard deviation (sampling time about one hour) with distance from the source, stability and height above the ground of the point of release, has been developed.

Plume rise measurements at industrial chimneys
TL;DR: In this paper, the results of about 70 measurements of smoke plume rise from industrial chimneys are described, and the experimental technique was as follows: the smoke was photographed repeatedly from a small aeroplane during a period of about 1 hr.

Concentration fluctuations and peak-to-mean concentration ratios in plumes from a ground-level continuous point source☆
J.V. Ramsdell,W.T. Hinos +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the relationship between peak-to-mean ratios and the time-ratio in the atmosphere and found that the relationship was not as simple as the simple power law relationship suggested by several workers.
