Analysis of international legislation related to odour impact management shows a wide variety of approaches and limits to tackle odour emissions. One of the most common approaches is setting a limit in odour units at the receptor.
Dynamic olfactometry measurement at the source coupled with dispersion modelling is often used although there are other approaches very much valid, such as field inspections. The Odour Impact Criteria (OIC) set are different, depending, for example, on the hedonic tone of the odours.
