Abstract
A device for dispersing foul gaseous effluent emissions released diffusely by sources located close to the ground, in particular by wastewater treatment ponds (10, 11, 12), includes: at least two auxiliary air or gas injectors (5a1, 5b1; 5a2, 5b2; 5a3, 5b3) oriented upwards and installed in opposing zones on the periphery of each foul gaseous effluent source, such as to disperse the gaseous effluents; separate supply elements (8.1, 13a1, 13b1; 8.2, 13a2, 13b2; 8.3, 13a3, 13b3) for the injectors; and wind-direction-sensitive control elements for ensuring that at least the injector(s) best located to disperse and/or lift the gaseous effluent plume are supplied.
