odourmapping   The next meeting on odour annoyance mapping by using citizen science will take place next 18th of September  This is the fourth meeting of the group of experts but it will be the first face-to-face session. The group will continue the work done focusing on the way to link odour and annoyance.

   According to the International Environmental Society of Odour Managers (AMIGO, for its acronym in Spanish), the group has chosen a new coordinator José Manuel Felisi. The new convenor has worked for a few years in a project dealing with citizens science in a small town in Alicante exposed to odours from a couple of landfills and a waste water treatment plant.

astm odors diapers   Another ASTM standard on odours is recently baked and now is available for download. Odour control is one of the top performance criteria in a variety of disposable absorbent hygiene articles, including nappies, adult incontinence products, feminine care products, and pet pads. Additionally, odours of the unused product themselves are often a concern of the consumer. Regardless of the specific product and its application, there are common sample preparation and sensory assessment techniques that may be employed to test product odours and malodour control performance.

   Currently, there is no standard for this testing. This standard can be used by product developers and material suppliers to test and understand material/product odours as well as the odour control effectiveness of these materials and final products.
