Malodours, by definition, are generally unpleasant, nuisance smells that are a mixture of volatile chemical compounds which can be perceptible even at low concentrations. Due to the more frequent occurrence of odour nuisance associated with the odour sensations, and thus the need to remove them from the air, deodorization techniques are commonly used. Biofiltration is one of the methods of reducing odorants in the air stream. In the presented studies, the possibility of using the electronic nose instead of gas chromatography for on-line monitoring and the efficiency evaluation of the nbutanol vapors biofiltration process in a transient state was shown. Three calibration models were used in the research: Multiple Linear Regression, Principal Component Regression and Partial Least Square Regression. The obtained results were compared with the theoretical values.
