Outline of Final Research Achievements

Earthy and musty odor, in addition to the odor caused by sulfur-containing compounds, is one of the barriers for the reclamation of treated wastewater. The quantification of odorous compounds and the analysis by a gas chromatograph with olfactometry detection in this study showed that not only geosmin and 2-methylisoborneol but 2,4,6-trichloroanisole contributed to earthy and musty odor of treated wastewater. Higher concentrations of earthy and musty odor compounds were observed for treated wastewater from large-scale wastewater plants in an urbanized area with closed-roof activated sludge reactors, while lower concentrations were detected for small-scale and community-scale plants in rural areas. The sulfur and skatole odor was dominant for the small-scale plants. Ozonation applied for the reclamation of treated wastewater was partially effective for the elimination of the odorous compounds, while activated carbon treatment was effective for the removal of earthy and musty odor.
