   Wastewater treatment configuration and operation influence the temporal variability of odour emissions from anaerobically digested biosolids.

   Analysis using GC-SCD, TD-GC-MS, and sensory evaluation revealed higher concentrations and detection frequencies of key VSCs (DMDS, DMS, DMTS, MeSH) during Phase 1, often exceeding odour thresholds and challenging their beneficial reuse. Extended monitoring is advised to improve management practices and support sustainable land application.

  Chile’s first odour regulation for pig farming, enacted in 2023, prompted an evaluation of its social impact.

   A survey in four affected regions showed significantly higher annoyance levels than in control areas, with women reporting more behavioural adaptations. While no gender differences were statistically significant, the study highlights the need for larger samples and better implementation strategies. The methodology could also be applied to assess odour regulations in other industries.

   PrOlor is a simple odor impact forecasting system for composting plants that supports BREF BAT 37 recommendations by anticipating odor episodes in sensitive areas.

   It uses meteorological and dispersion models (such as GFS, WRF, CALMET, and CALPUFF) run in the cloud to send daily odor threshold exceedance forecasts by email. The study also aims to compare these predictions with actual odor records at a specific composting plant.
