Abstract (english)
With this study we challenge the widely held assumption that sulphur-containing compounds in ambient air are good indicators of the presence noxious odours near waste management facilities. We analysed an extensive set of olfactometric data and data on the concentrations of hydrogen sulphide and trace sulphur compounds (TSCs) near a waste management facility in Croatia in 2021. The results show that the presence of noxious odours significantly correlates only with the concentrations of hydrogen sulphide and methyl mercaptan in ambient air but not with other measured TSCs. Thus, in addition to the measurement of pollutants in ambient air, Integrated Pollution and Prevention Control (IPPC) permits should mandate olfactometric measurements to detect and mitigate noxious odours near waste management facilities.
Abstract (croatian)
U ovom je radu istražena povezanost između koncentracija spojeva koji sadrže sumpor, a koji se tradicionalno koriste kao tzv. Proxy indikatori prisutnosti neugodnih mirisa u blizini postrojenja za gospodarenje otpadom, i prisutnosti neugodnih mirisa detektiranih olfaktometrijskim mjerenjima. Podatci su dobiveni u blizini centra za gospodarenje otpadom u kojem se provodi mehaničko-biološka obrada otpada i u sklopu kojega je i bioreaktorsko odlagalište na kojem se odlaže izdvojena organska komponenta preostalog miješanog komunalnog otpada. U rad se problematizira pretpostavka da je koncentracija spojeva koji sadrže sumpor u okolnom zraku dobar pokazatelj prisutnosti neugodnih mirisa. U tu svrhu analizirali smo opsežnu bazu podataka kemijskih i olfaktometrijskih mjerenja provedenih u okolici lokacije centra tijekom 2021 godine. Rezultati pokazuju da se samo male varijacije u neugodnim mirisima mogu objasniti spojevima sumpora u okolnom zraku. Statistički značajna korelacija s prisutnošću neugodnih mirisa dokazana je samo za sumporovodik i metil merkaptan, a za ostale testirane spojeve, koji su uključivali etil merkaptan, metil sulfid, dimetil sulfid i dimetildisulfid, nije bilo statistički značajne korelacije. Iako je praćenje sumporovodika i metil merkaptan sulfida opravdano kao proxy metoda za mjerenje prisutnosti neugodnih mirisa, okolišnom bi dozvolom, osim kemijskih analiza onečišćujućih tvari u vanjskom zraku, trebala biti propisana i olfaktometrijska mjerenja radi što kvalitetnije zaštite okoliša i zdravlja ljudi koji obitavaju u okolici centra.
