Odour NORMI

Our Objectives

NORMI Research Foundation focuses on using research and development incorporated with new age technology to improve the quality of Environment as well as quality of life for all individuals.

To identify, predict, evaluate and manage the impact of carbon footprint & odour on public health & its mitigation measures.

To manage & deliver exclusive expertise on analysis techniques for odour management & carbon footprint.

To design and develop instruments for the monitoring & measurement.

To perform sampling, analysis, monitoring and management using analytical and sensory method.

To sensitize and generate awareness among stakeholders related to carbon footprint & odour including its adverse impacts and solutions thereof.

To conduct scientific research, beneficial to industry, environment, public health as well as to the society.

To achieve global competitiveness in research, innovation, technology and skill imparting.

To provide competency-based accreditation to organization on skill development.

To promote and organize value-based human resource development through education, training & skill development programs.

To suggest and promote environment friendly policy framework for national and international bodies.

Milestones Achieved

To accomplish the objective of promoting and organizing value-based human resource development through education, training & skill development programs, NORMI Research Foundation Organized a half-day seminar on “Odour Measurement and Mitigation in Oil Refineries” on 18th April, 2023 in association with Centre for High Technology (CHT).

The Seminar was attended by:

Executive Directors / senior officials from IOCL, BPCL, HPCL, NRL, MRPL, Gail India, EIL.

Key Takeaway from the seminar:

EIA Guidelines need to have Odour study, measurement, ESG, circular economy and mitigation techniques on parameter of cost, research opportunities in the field of developing indigenous compound for mitigation, developing industry and source specific E-noses, odour alarms, sensors and many more.

Our Initiatives For Odour Management

Skill Development:

Monthly Odour awareness sessions conducted by NORMI. Along with two International sessions annually.

Odour Awareness:

A chapter on Odour getting included in post- graduate diploma in disaster management by NMIMS University- “Odour As Early Warning Signal For Disaster Management”.

Odour Mitigation:

Collaboration with Institutions and Researchers Organizations for finding solutions for odour problems.

Database Compilation:

We assembled different field experts by bringing them together onto a single platform.
