FAQs - Frequently asked questions on the above paper "The Two Odors of Iron..."
Anecdotal evidence of metallic smell:
There's the old story about the baker who sues a homeless beggar who keeps
coming into the bakery and inhaling the scent of freshly baked bread. To make a
long story short, the judge orders the beggar to remove the few coins he has in
his ragged pockets. "okay," says the judge to the baker, "the court now gives
you permission to smell his money."

Glindemann, D., Novak, J., Witherspoon, J.
Dimethyl Sulfoxide (DMSO) Waste Residues and Municipal Waste Water Odor by
Dimethyl Sulfide (DMS): the North-East WPCP Plant of Philadelphia. Environ. Sci. Technol. (2006), 40(1), 202-207.
Click to enlarge Abstract: This
study shows for the first time that overlooked mg/L concentrations of industrial
dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) waste residues in sewage can cause “rotten cabbage”
odor problems by dimethyl sulphide (DMS) in conventional municipal wastewater
treatment. In laboratory studies, incubation of activated sludge with 1 to 10
mg/L DMSO in bottles produced dimethylsulfide (DMS) at concentrations that
exceeded the odor threshold by approximately four orders of magnitude in the
headspace gas. Aeration at a rate of six m3 air / m3
sludge resulted in emission of the DMS into the exhaust air in a manner
analogous to an activated sludge aeration tank. A field study at the NEWPCP
sewage treatment plant in Philadelphia found DMSO levels intermittently peaking
as high as 2400 mg/L in sewage near an industrial discharger. After three hours,
the DMSO concentration in the influent to the aeration tank rose from a baseline
level of less than 0.01 mg/L to a level of 5.6 mg/L and the DMS concentration
in the mixed liquor rose from less than 0.01 to 0.2 mg/L. Finding this link
between the intermittent occurrence of DMSO residues in influent of the
treatment plant and the odorant DMS in the aeration tank was the key to
understanding and eliminating the intermittent “canned corn” or “rotten cabbage”
odor emissions from the aeration tank that had randomly plagued this plant and
its city neighborhood for two decades. Sewage authorities should consider having
wastewater samples analyzed for DMSO and DMS to check for this possible odor
problem and that DMSO emission thresholds be established to limit odor
generation at sewage treatment plants.
