What is MPCI doing to reduce odours?
- Complete and implement an Odour Management Plan.
- Install chemical scrubbers to treat the air in the bunkers.
- Cover the front of all bunkers to reduce the amount of air escaping from the front and increase the amount of air being funnelled to the exhaust fans.
- Eliminate storing of compost on concrete pad over night by adding two new bunkers where substrate can cool prior to being transferred to indoor tunnels.
- Cover the conveyors.
- Connect exhaust from nutrient rich water tank to chemical scrubbers for treatment of odours.
- Monitor odour events.
- Evaluate new odour control technology regularly.
- Continue to meet and work with community representatives.
