meeting delft july   The last 19th and 20th of June, the Working Group 41 dealing with Instrumental Odour Monitoring met in Delft, the Netherlands for a couple of days of intensive discussions. One of the Task Groups (TG) dealing with the minimum requirements for instrumental odour monitoring, presented some interesting points discussed in a previous meeting in Düsseldorf, Germany.

   A follow-up discussion was held afterwards on the 11th of July in Gosselies, Belgium.

Callejo   The use of microalgae in integrated gas purification processes has taken a special interest in recent years, mainly due to its ability to capture CO2. These applications involve the generation of biomass that can be used to obtain bioproducts and/or bioenergy.

   However, the development of these processes requires an improvement in the cell rupture and biocompounds extraction methods. The aim of this study was to evaluate a method for obtaining proteins and free amino acids (FAN) from Chlorella vulgaris.

Oxicrew   The purpose of this article is to evaluate the effectiveness of the ozone technology. In this case study, an ozone unit was inserted after a chemical scrubber. Odour samples were taken before the scrubbing, after the scrubber (and before the ozone unit), and after the whole set of abatement. Very high efficiencies were found.

   To this end, a test was carried out treating with ozone a part of the flow of a chimney in an animal by-products processing plant. The report of the VOCs and odours analysis laboratory confirmed the test success.
