This study was conducted to evaluate the dilution accuracy of the dynamic olfactometer made in Republic of Korea and analyze the correlation of odor levels from the olfactometry method and Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (LC/MS). The evaluation of dilution accuracy using CH₄ standard gas for the dynamic olfactometer at lower dilution ratios of 3, 10, 30, 100 and 300, and at higher dilution ratios of 100, 300, 1000, 3000 and 10000 showed the relative errors of 1.48~3.40% and 2.06~4.76% respectively showing a good dilution accuracy. Twenty odor samples from the stacks of odor-monitoring factories in the industrial complex located at the western coastal area of ROK were analyzed with the dynamic olfactometer for complex odor and LC/MS for five types of aldehydes, and a very weak correlation of R² = 0.1276 between OU(Odor Unit) from the olfactometer data and SOQ (Summation of Odor Quotient) from LCjMS data was obtained. Because of the complexity of the odor composition, using concentration of single or group of gases to represent odor level has not been proved to fully estimate the presence or level of odors. Therefore, the dynamic olfactometry which has a good dilution accuracy and a standardized odor evaluation system is considered as a very resonable method to assess complex odor.
