What’s new in Odour
Facilitator: Geordie Galvin – Odour SIG Chair
Time: 5 pm – 6 pm AEST – 25 June 2020
Time: 9 am– 10 am AEST – 26 June 2020
The Odour SIG presents two speakers on What’s New in the odour field. This AIR TALK is split into two parts to accommodate timezones for Europe and North America.
Part 1, 25th June, 5 pm to 6 pm, will feature Ton van Harreveld, Founder of Odournet in the Netherlands. Ton will provide an update on European Standard EN13725 and its progress towards revision. EN13725 “Air quality-determination of odour concentration by dynamic olfactometry” was first published in 2003, with this revision including more detail on sampling and updates to olfactometry measurement. You may remember Ton from the CASANZ 2007 Conference. He is an engaging and knowledgeable speaker, not to be missed.
Part 2 will be held on 26th June, 9 am to 10 am. In this second part the focus will shift to North America, where Mike McGinley will detail his perspective on field odour surveys and development of olfactometry standards. Mike is Laboratory Director at St Croix Sensory and an ASTM Sensory Evaluation Committee Task Group Leader. Mike was also awarded the ASTM E18 Award of Merit in October 2019.
