Composting
Cleanawater's comprehensive odour management for composting sites
Key odour challenges for the composting industry
- Intrinsically odorous nature of composting
- Urban growth encroaching closer to treatment sites
- Growing community intolerance of odorous emissions
- Increased pressure to meet environmental compliance requirements
- Odour treatments must not affect the organic composting process
- Prevention of Work Health and Safety issues
Industry overview
Odour management for composting facilities must factor in the high levels of odour emissions produced on-site due to the biological breakdown of organic material. The most appropriate method of control depends on the size of the odour source. For large and diffuse odours, atmospheric misting or vapour generation could be best, alongside a topical 'blanket' treatment.
If, however, the odour can be contained, biofiltration would be a better option, whether that be via a skid mounted vessel unit, or an open bed filtration unit. Odour management for composting facilities must also address EPA odour limits at site boundaries.
