TOMS
Our TOMS Total Odour Management Software offers a complete and integrated suite for odour management. The system provides a perfect blend of real-time odour impact estimation with the registration and further management of odour complaints from neighboring residents.
Our easy to use software utilizes both continuous pollution monitoring data and live weather data to calculate a real-time odour plume model, further displaying an exact location and spread of your odour emissions. Furthermore, complaints are automatically logged and compared to odour emissions for quick and efficient validation.
Our TOMS program outlined here follows a simple 4-step methodology to ensure you tackle any odour situation with ease and certainty.

From estimation to monitoring and odour dispersion, TOMS provides a complete solution for understanding a facility’s total odour impact.
Estimate of Emissions
The first step to fully comprehending and solving any odour issue begins with creating an initial estimate of its emissions. This can be as comprehensive as a full odour inventory using field olfactometry devices such as the SM100i, or as simple as using Scentroid’s comprehensive emission factor database. Scentroid’s environmental engineers can guide you through this step to ensure a cost-effective yet accurate initial estimate.
When dealing with the potential subjectivity of registering an odour complaint, applying a system such as this removes a large source of potential error.
Project Levels of Pollution
The initial odour inventory is used to create an odour plume. This plume visually indicates how odours will travel and affect nearby residents. To calculate this plume, USEPA air dispersion modeling software (AERMOD) is used.
The dispersion model will not only use the odour emission from each source but also take into account local meteorological data such as wind speed and wind direction. This will further allow us to apply a model to both surface and elevated sources, and through both simple and complex terrain variations.
Monitor Pollution Using Total Odour Management Software
Odour emissions are always changing based on process, ambient weather conditions, or upset conditions. TOMS automatically calculates and updates itself to reflect these changes through live ambient odour monitoring.
Monitoring stations, such as the CTair and Scentinal are used to measure ground level odours at facility boundary, directly over large sources, or at sensitive receptors. Scentroid’s monitoring equipment has been specifically designed to detect trace levels (parts per billion) of odourous compounds such as H2S, NH3, and VOCs. The pollutant measurement is converted to odour units (OU/m3) using Scentroid’s deep learning algorithm. The data collected is then used in the next phase to compute changes to the source emission rates.
Calculate Error Estimate
The most critical step of the TOMS live monitoring is the update of the emission estimate based on real ground level odour measurements. Every minute, TOMS compares its estimated odour level from dispersion modeling to the actual measurements through the use of continuous odour monitoring equipment. If there is a significant difference, TOMS will adjust and update it’s emission rates to compensate. The emission rates are updated using a fuzzy logic algorithm that takes into considerate weather data, source variation patterns, detected pollutants and historical estimates. Users are not only provided with an extremely accurate odour emission projection but also can use updated emission rates to determine how sources emit odours over time and which operations are more detrimental to an overall odour control strategy.
TOMS Features
Real-Time Odour Emission Monitoring
This summary page displays a real time plume, contains a menu for changing users or logging out, settings, plots based on time and date, open complaint display, and weather data for the plot.
Complaint Management System
Any new complaint can either be registered by TOMS users, or through a link provided within your project documentation. Once registered, they are compared to the odour impact at their specified location and time.
Complaint Justification System
Once a complaint has been entered, our TOMS Total Odour Management Software system will record the complaint, the time of complaint, or any answers supplied by your facility.
Weather Forecast & Predictive Risk System
TOMS is capable of handing data and information compiled from multiple sources. Through a minimal setup procedure, TOMS will obtain weather data from a local weather station or the nearest meteorological station.
Advanced Data Analytics
A thorough and complete odour report can be generated dynamically through a user selected time period. The report itself details complaints received per month, and whether they are justified or not.
COMPATIBLE DEVICES
Perfect for SL50
This continuous monitoring station collects data from a variety of sensors and presents it with an easy to understand graphical interface.
AQSafe Friendly
Observes your indoor air quality from a wide variety of sensors, including temperature and humidity. Sensors can track dust, VOC’s, compounds found indoors.
Desktop and Mobile
The robust SIMS2 platform is web based and available on all browsers with internet connectivity. The mobile platform app can be accessed by downloading it from the Google Play Store.
