The 11th VDI Conference, "Odours in the Environment," will take place on November 18-19, 2025, at the Wyndham Grand Salzburg Conference Centre in Salzburg, Austria, and promises to be a key gathering for odour management professionals from the German-speaking world.
The previous edition in Leipzig, which had approximately 160 participants, was hailed as a resounding success. This year's special theme will focus on "Odour Dispersion Modelling and the Practical Challenges in Real-World Applications." Suppose you are an expert in odour emissions, ambient air measurements, or odour forecasting, and you know a bit of German. In that case, this is your opportunity to share your insights and engage in discussions with other professionals in the field.
The conference will cover a wide range of topics, including but not limited to:
- Olfactometric odour emission measurements
- Odour immission measurements, grid measurements, and odour plume surveys (static/dynamic)
- Odour forecasting models and their application
- Legal aspects of odour immission assessment
- Recent advances in standardisation
- Practical case studies and comparisons of methods
- Practical applications such as odour treatment technologies
- Special Focus: Challenges in Odour Dispersion Modelling in practice
Whether you are involved in measuring, forecasting, or mitigating odour emissions, the VDI Conference offers a unique platform for sharing knowledge, discussing best practices, and exploring new approaches.
