A papermill in a small town has for many years caused a lot of odour annoyance. Odour exposures were determined by odour emission measurements and dispersion calculations. Odour exposure on immission level was determined by the use of a trained sniffing team. Odour annoyance was determined by panellists using a diary four times a day during a six week period. The odour annoyance was calculated as an Odour Annoyance Index. Distinction was made between different types of odours (rotten, wood). The relation between odour annoyance and the direction of wind and the distance of the observations from the source is presented. The relations between two dispersion models, the measured immission by the sniffing team and the odour annoyance, as determined by the panellists, are presented.
The relations between the distance from the source and the odour annoyance is strong. The relation between the direction of wind and the odour annoyance is also strong. A trend is shown between the odour annoyance and the immission level determined by the sniffing team. A strong correlation is found between the exposure calculated with the dispersion models and the measurements by the sniffing team.
一个小镇上的造纸厂多年来一直造成大量气味困扰。通过气味排放测量和扩散计算来确定气味暴露情况。通过使用经过训练的嗅探小组来确定排放水平上的气味暴露。在六周时间内，小组成员每天使用日记四次来确定气味困扰程度。气味困扰程度通过气味困扰指数来计算。区分了不同类型的气味（腐烂味、木味）。给出了气味困扰与风向以及观测点到源的距离之间的关系。还给出了两种扩散模型、嗅探小组测量的排放情况以及小组成员确定的气味困扰之间的关系。
源与气味困扰之间的距离关系密切。风向与气味困扰之间的关系也密切。在气味困扰与嗅探小组确定的排放水平之间呈现出一种趋势。在通过扩散模型计算的暴露与嗅探小组的测量结果之间发现了很强的相关性。
