Work in progress

We don’t look back for very long.
We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we’re curious…
and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

As a university research group, the Laboratorio Olfattometrico s always engaged in researching and developing new solutions related to the world of odour, in accordance with the needs and problems of the industrial world.

Currently, we are working on:

  • Quantification of fugitive emissions of volatile organic compounds
  • Characterisation of complex sources, such as floating roof tanks
  • Continuous monitoring and real-time olfactory impact
  • Calculation of new EROMs (European Reference Odour Mass)
  • Development of sampling systems
  • Toxicological impact of industrial odour emissions
  • Development of innovative methods for modelling sub-hourly fluctuation phenomena
  • Use of innovative tools and optical methods for measuring volatile organic compounds
