Agricultural operations give rise to odour pollution that can be mitigated by good design in the building and structure. The aim of BS 5502-33 is to indicate to the designer ways in which the effects of such pollution can be reduced by the effective design and construction of a building and structure.
BS 5502-33 provides users guidance on odour control including, reduction of odour concentration, methods of odour control, pre-treatment, land spreading of waste, stored waste, livestock buildings, silage clamps and more, enabling users to control odour and prevent odour toxicity in agricultural applications.
BS 5502-33 provides users guidance on sources of odour control including:
