Odour Research Projects

• Chemical and microbial analysis of odorants from poultry facilities (2005-2009)

  Proponents:	CWWT Dr Richard Stuetz, Dr Xinguang Wang, Dr Gautam Chattopadhyay, and David Schleheck
  Purpose:	The project aims to relate the generation of odours and odorants from tunnel ventilated chicken sheds to change in the microbial ecology of the shed litter; and develop a detailed odorant characterisation of gaseous emissions from tunnel ventilated chicken sheds.
  Funding:	Poultry CRC

  
  

• Controlling odours and corrosion in wastewater collection system (2005-2007)

  Proponents:	CWWT Dr Richard Stuetz and Dr Xinguang Wang
  Purpose:	The project will review and evaluate the measures for controlling odour and corrosion in sewer collection system.
  Funding:	WERF

  
  

• Assessment of advanced oxidation technologies for odour control (2005)

  Proponents:	CWWT Dr Andrew Feitz, Dr Jing Guan and Dr Xinguang Wang
  Purpose:	The purpose of this project is to assess the suitability of advanced oxidation technologies (AOTs) to remove odours from TEMCO wastewater.
  Funding:	TEMCO

  
  

• Review of oxidation processes for destruction of odour from alumina refinery digestion condensate (2005)

  Proponents:	CWWT Dr Andrew Feitz, Dr Xinguang Wang and Dr Richard Stuetz
  Purpose:	The purpose of this project is to review oxidation processes and evaluate the effectiveness of potentially suitable AOPs for application to aluminum refinery condensate odour removal.
  Funding:	Alumina Industry Air Emission Forum (AIAEF)

  
  

• Biofiltration of methane emissions from landfill waste disposal sites using recycled waste products (2004-2005)

  Proponents:	CIVENG Dr Gareth Swarbrick and Dr Richard Stuetz
  Purpose:
  Funding:	NSW DOC
