Odours Overview

M-Scan has unrivalled expertise in the analysis of odours using Thermal Desorption GC/MS (TD GC-MS). This technique is used for the analysis of outdoor air quality including:

• stack gas analysis
• emissions from sewage treatment work
• abattoir

as well as the analysis of indoor air quality from:

• manufacturing plant
• laboratories
• restaurants
• offices
• domestic property

and samples from transport (cars, aircraft and boats).

In each case M-Scan’s expertise has assisted in identifying VOCs of concern or nuisance odours. Odourous compounds detected are compared against M-Scan’s own proprietary database of odour thresholds which lists the odour levels at which 50% of the population are aware of an odour.
