Odours might cause offensive nuisance and are under suspicion to be directly harmful to health. Surprisingly their assessment is by definition no part of the determination of indoor air quality (yet). As odours emit from building materials as well as from common consumer goods the users awareness increases continuously and demand for improved consumer protection raises. In comparison to well established methods for the determination of volatile organic compounds (VOC) in the air, there is little experience regarding the applicability, comparability and reproducibility of odour measurements. Considering this, the international and the German standardisation take into account odour assessment, e.g. ISO 16000-28 and VDI 4302-1.
In Germany the AgBB-Scheme is a mandatory tool for the evaluation of building products and it is intended to implement odour measurement into it. Initially and essentially the newly developed method had to be put to test involving institutes that deal with VOC measurements. To test the applicability of the method an interlaboratory test was conducted. The results and identified potential improvements are presented in this study (Brosig, 2013).
Applicability: Odour Measurement based on ISO 16000-28 Enhanced determination of Indoor Air Quality
(2014)
Während in der Vergangenheit insbesondere die Entwicklung einer sensorischen Prüfmethode (in DIN ISO 16000-28 und VDI 4302-1 genormt und im AgBB-Schema verankert) für die Bewertung von Bauprodukten im Vordergrund der Betrachtungen stand, wurde im Rahmen der vom UBA initiierten Pilotphase mithilfe des Ringversuches erstmals die institutsübergreifende Anwendbarkeit dieser Verfahren untersucht. Ziel dabei war es, noch bestehende Schwierigkeiten im Umgang mit der Prüfmethode zu identifizieren und Empfehlungen für das weitere Vorgehen herauszuarbeiten.
