Study and Analysis of Odour of Hydrogen Sulfide and Ammonia Gas within Kurkumbh Industrial Area

Shinde Rajaram B. | Gawande Sagar

Abstract: Attention to odor as an environmental nuisance has been growing as a result of increasing industrialization and the awareness of peoples need for a clean environment. As a consequence, efforts to abate odor problems are necessary in order to maintain the quality of the environment. It also presents an overview of current and emerging odor measurement techniques, including those based on sensory measurements (i. e. , relying on the human experience of odor), and chemical analysis techniques, in which certain chemicals are identified as surrogates for odor and measurement is aimed at identifying the amount of these chemicals present in the ambient air. Typical source types for odor are also described in this chapter, along with the chemicals often associated with the odors they generate. Examples of gas surrogates include (ammonia [NH3], hydrogen sulfide [H2S] In this paper, odor pollution in the environment will be reviewed, including its sources and dispersion, the physical and chemical properties of odor. The measured gas concentrations were generally below the permissible exposure limits (PELs) established by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). One of the challenges when dealing with the odor pollution problem is the technique for the detection of odor emissions the detection and measurement of the odorous compounds i. e. Hydrogen sulfide and ammonia can be carried out by using sensor at different location within kurkumbh industrial area.
