[0079]
[0080] wherein GOT represents the component odor threshold value of each type of component, GSOAV represents the component odor activity value addition of each type of component, and GC represents the component concentration of each type of component.
[0081] After calculating the component odor threshold value of each type of component of different bitumens, only hydrogen sulfide in the volatile inorganic matter contributes to the odor of bitumen. Therefore, the correlation analysis of the concentration of the volatile inorganic matter only needs to consider the concentration of hydrogen sulfide, and finally the component odor threshold value of each type of component for the matrix bitumen is obtained, as shown in Table 3.

[0092] The higher the calculated approximate odor activity value is, the more serious the odor pollution degree is. Comparing the real odor activity value SOAV with the approximate odor activity value ASOAV, the odor pollution degree of the five matrix bitumens is consistent in the order. Therefore, the odor characteristics of the matrix bitumen can be evaluated by the bitumen odor characteristic evaluation method.
