Odour Neutralizer – A Solution to Minimize The Odour from Municipal Solid Waste
Journal Title: GRD Journal for Engineering - Year 2016, Vol 1, Issue 0
Abstract
With growing population, industrialization and urbanization, the odour problem has been assuming objectionable proportion. Urbanization without proper sanitation facilities is a major cause of odour problem. Odour affects human beings in a number of ways. Strong, unpleasant or offensive smells can interfere with a person’s enjoyment of life especially if they are frequent. Most commonly reported odour-producing compounds are hydrogen sulfide, volatile organic compounds, which is generated from landfill site or dumping ground. The objective of this study is to treat solid waste in economical way to reduce the odour nuisance. This research will be carried out at Kanjur site with specific experimentation using garbage gas collector on municipal solid waste. Presently, India does not have any defined odour policy to measure and control this nuisance. To maintain the aesthetic value of the environment there is requirement of new products which are to be adopted to minimize the odour. These products are natural and non-toxic which are used to enhance degradation rate of organic waste.
