Solid Waste Odours

In todays modern society we generate vast quantities of waste and solid waste odours generated in landfills, transfer stations and compost facilities can very easily escape into surrounding neighbourhoods and communities.

Solid waste management is complex and demanding and site operators are continually searching for an efficient, cost effective and environmentally friendly odour control solution to minimise complaints and improve public perception.

Odour Neutralising Spray Systems can deliver AirSolution odour neutralisers and BioStreme foaming products to the following problem areas:

• Perimeters
• Working and Tipping Faces
• Roads and Scales
• Leachate

The most common compounds that cause solid waste odours are:

• Hydrogen Sulphide
• Sulphur Dioxide
• Ammonia
• Methyl Mercaptan

All of these odour producing compounds are caused through the decomposition of waste materials, with methane being the most prominent gas generated by the waste decomposition prcoess in landfills.
