In addition to air pollutants, some forms of development have the potential to create odour, which, if not reasonably suppressed, could unacceptably impact the amenity of residential neighbours. Potential sources of odour include waste transfer facilities, agricultural and farming uses, sewage treatment works, and energy generation (such as waste-to-energy facilities and anaerobic digestion plants).

Quantum Air provides a range of odour assessment services, including:

• Desk-based assessment in accordance with IAQM guidance;

• Computational odour modelling;

• Site surveys;

• Kitchen odour assessments.

Once the potential odour impact of a development or facility has been assessed, Quantum Air can advise on appropriate mitigation strategies and prepare Odour Management Plans for future control and permitting compliance.
