The application of adsorbents in odour control can be traced back for centuries, but with low efficiency. Owing to the variety of odours and the sensitivity of the population, powerful techniques for odour control have to be developed. Specific sorption processes are promising. Surface modification of silica gel is a possible way to increase the specificity of the adsorbents. A simple method is introduced to characterize the adsorption behaviour of these materials.
