The Edmonton Waste Management Centre (EWMC) of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, is a unique collection of advanced waste processing and research facilities.  Owned and operated by the city of Edmonton Waste Management Services, the EWMC is an integral part of Edmonton’s sustainable approach to waste management.  The Centre is 233 hectares in size – 25 hectares is devoted to their composting facility, and is the largest of its kind in North America. 

Odotech, a Canadian Company that produces the e-noses, announces the installation of one of their largest OdoWatch systems to date, at the EWMC. The OdoWatch system is designed to track odours from the recycling area, material transfer station and working face of the landfill.

The Edmonton Waste Management Centre, world-renowned for their innovation in waste management, has selected Odotech to help them better understand and efficiently manage, the odours emitted from their site. With greater knowledge about sources of the odours, more effective measures to mitigate those emissions can be developed.
