OdorPrep® is suitable for users such as Environmental Public Authorities, Consultancy companies, Olfactometric and chemical laboratories, Industries… A deepen research and dissemination activity has been done to promote and validate the technology in collaboration with Public Entities (e.g. Environmental and Water Minister of Bulgaria, ISSeP; Environmental Public Institute in Belgium; Local EPAs in Italy), Multinational companies (SUEZ, VEOLIA) and main key opinion leaders in Europe. Industrial companies responsible for controlling their odour emissions have also been contacted in Italy, Bulgaria, Spain, France, Benelux, UK to test the technology. Waste and water treatment plants, as well as oil refining plants and chemical plants are our target industries.
A key dissemination activity has been done at Institutional level. LabService is attending at main National and European working groups that are drawing up technical guidelines and standards about dynamic olfactometry and instrumental odor monitoring system. The triggering system is the key for this first real-time network which can automatically activate the remote sampling of odour emission. OdorPrep is providing an exclusive system that the population can activate when detecting an annoying odour and start the triggering process. OdorPrep® links for the first time citizens’ objective odour detection with a real-time odour control and monitoring. Thanks to its triggering system, sample collection is much cheaper than current alternatives. Moreover, monitoring costs are lower, as there is no on-site surveillance. For the sampling system we will use sample bags five times cheaper than Teflon bags, which allows a very competitive product compared to actual alternatives. OdorPrep® will contribute to prevent and control odour pollutant emissions, allowing to perform a high number of samples at a competitive cost, with the added value of quality representativeness measurements (EN13725)
