On other hand, taking into consideration the temperature dependence
of degradation rates, reducing load rates applied to waste treatment features
during cold weather periods is a good practice to decrease off-odors emission.
Another advised procedure for those kinds of biological waste systems
is their continuous loading, at least fed-batch rate additions adapted to
temperature patterns, to avoid the biological agents facing variable nutrient
concentrations or sudden media composition alterations, which can induce
biological nutrient shocks and shifts in metabolic mechanisms to malodorous
processes, as those exemplifi ed in Table 3.
