The definitive text of the Standard EN 16841 is finally available in the official language versions (English, French and German) and it has been distributed to the CEN/CENELEC members. That means that although it might take a while for the EN standard to be available for purchase in any CEN member website, the process has already started.
This European Standard is based on field inspections and it describes two methods for direct assessment of odours in ambient air making direct use of the effect of odorants on the human sense of smell. This European Standard EN 16841 is divided in two parts, the EN 16841-1:2016 that describes a grid method which uses direct assessment of ambient air by panel members to characterize odour exposure in a defined assessment area and the EN 16841-2:2016 that describes a plume method for determining the extent of the downwind odour plume of a source.
In 2014 the residents of Kelsterbach suffered from an extreme annoyance due to odour impact in the residential areas. The nearby located WTP of the Stadtentwässerung Frankfurt was considered to be the source for the occurring odours.
The objective of the Project was to validate the odor annoyance from normal food preparation.
