Is This Service For You?
If any of these resonate, an Odor Assessment is the right first step.
Don’t Know Where to Start
Multiple exhaust points, complex odor sources, and no clear priority.
You need a systematic assessment before any equipment purchase.
Previous Measures Failed
Installed deodorizers recommended by other vendors but complaints persist.
The root cause was likely never properly identified.
Want Minimum-Cost Solutions
Avoid over-specced equipment. Our assessment pinpoints exactly what’s needed,
eliminating wasted investment on unnecessary capacity.
Need Regulatory Compliance
Verify whether your facility meets local odor regulations and identify
specific areas that need improvement to pass compliance checks.
Planning Future Budgets
Want to create a phased deodorization plan? Our prioritized assessment
helps you allocate budget to the highest-impact measures first.
Proactive Risk Management
Anticipate potential odor complaints before they happen. Ideal for
new facilities, expansions, or process changes.
Why Assessment First?
The #1 Reason Odor Control Fails
Misidentified Sources
In our experience, the odor source customers assume is causing complaints
is often not the actual culprit. Wrong diagnosis = wrong treatment.
Our assessment starts from ground truth, not assumptions.
Data-Driven, Not Guesswork
We quantify odor with objective data — odor concentration, O.E.R. (Odor
Emission Rate), dispersion simulations, and component analysis. This eliminates
over-investment and ensures the shortest path to resolution.
The 5-Phase Assessment Process
A systematic approach to visualize, quantify, and resolve odor issues.
On-site Odor Investigation
Certified odor assessors survey your entire facility, identifying every emission
point. Each source is measured, catalogued, and characterized for odor type and
intensity.
Priority Ranking (O.E.R.)
Each emission source is ranked by Odor Emission Rate (concentration × airflow).
This reveals which sources have the greatest neighborhood impact, enabling
targeted investment on the highest-priority points.
Perimeter Survey
Assessors physically walk the surrounding area, mapping how far and strong
your facility’s odors travel. This field data validates and refines simulation
models for higher accuracy.
Dispersion Simulation (KaLmoS)
Our proprietary KaLmoS system models odor dispersion using site data,
meteorology, and building geometry. It predicts landing odor concentration
at any point — unique capability for complex odor planning.
Component Analysis
GC/MS analysis identifies all 22 regulated odor substances plus additional
compounds. “Odor dominance rate” calculation reveals which specific chemicals
drive complaints — the key to selecting the right deodorizer.
Optimized Solution Proposal
Based on all data, we propose multiple solution scenarios with cost-performance
comparisons — including simulation of post-treatment dispersion to confirm
complaint resolution before any equipment purchase.
Air Environment Investigation
Solving Odor Issues with Optimal Solutions
Proper simulation visualizes odor dispersion before implementation, ensuring cost-effective and highly reliable deodorization strategies for your facility.
Before Countermeasures
Initial state without any deodorization equipment. Odors disperse widely across the neighborhood, causing direct environmental impact.
Inadequate Solution
Installation of low-cost equipment with only 70% efficiency. Although improved, the odor problem remains unresolved in surrounding areas.
Optimal Solution
Utilizing ideal, cost-effective equipment combined with optimized exhaust methods. The environmental impact is thoroughly minimized.
Stop Guessing. Start Solving.
By simulating multiple scenarios, our service prevents wasteful investments and accurately identifies the most cost-effective and definitive deodorization strategy for your facility.

FAQ
What does the Odor Assessment include?
A comprehensive on-site investigation, odor source ranking by emission rate, perimeter
survey, dispersion simulation using our proprietary KaLmoS system, chemical component
analysis, and a detailed solution proposal with cost comparisons.
How long does the assessment take?
Depending on facility size and complexity, on-site investigation typically takes 1–3 days.
The full report including simulation results is delivered within a few weeks.
Do we need to install Kalmor equipment afterward?
No. The assessment is vendor-neutral — we recommend the optimal solution regardless
of manufacturer. However, many clients choose our equipment after seeing the data.
Can the simulation predict post-treatment odor levels?
Yes. KaLmoS can model various treatment scenarios — different deodorizer efficiencies,
exhaust configurations, and operational conditions — to predict post-treatment dispersion
before any equipment is purchased.
Is the service available outside Japan?
Yes. We provide odor assessment services internationally. Contact us for details
on availability and logistics for your region.
