This webcast is organized by the Water Environmental Federation (WEF) and will focus on the dynamics of air flow through collection systems and how it relates to the release of odors. The presentations will focus on understanding the relative movement of air and wastewater through sewers and how the movement of wastewater impacts the release of odors. This webcast is priced at $40.00 for non WEF members, and it is free for WEF members.

   The Air Quality and Odor Control (AQOC) Committee of the Water Environmental Federation (WEF) agreed in their last committee meeting conference call in January 11th to schedule a webcast for the 21st of June. The response of some of their members was overwhelming and here you have the list of speakers for this webcast:

   In October 2016 we organized the first Odour Talks. The idea was to select key experts in several fields of odour management and to let them present a work of interest on the subject. To make this experience available to the rest of the world, we did a webcast online of the Talks. Some people subscribed to the webcast sessions and they could do online questions to the speakers. A few months after this experience, we have decided to make the videos available to everyone, so here you have the first Odour Talk by Mr. Hugo van Belois.

  Mr van Belois is an environmental engineer that studied in the Wageningen university and who has worked in the field of odour /odour nuisance in the Netherlands for over 25 years. He has worked both in the consultancy and with the government. The last five years he has worked as an independent consultant on the field of Air quality and a healthy living environment.
