26-5 MONITORIZAREA MIROSURILOR ÎNTR-O INSTALAȚIE DE DIGESTIE ANAEROBĂ

ODOUR MONITORING IN AN ANAEROBIC
DIGESTION PLANT
In the latest years the problem of odour emissions has got an
increasing emphasis, due to the expansion of urban areas with the consequent
approach of the settlements to the industrial areas and the increase of public
awareness towards environmental issues. Odours do not cause toxic effects to
human health. However they can cause symptoms in both physiological (as
respiratory problems, nausea and headaches) and psychological levels. In this
article, the results of odour monitoring emissions in an anaerobic digestion
plant fed with dedicated crops in which there is a feeding/mixing tank
uncovered are presented. The role of this tank concerning the odour emissions
is the object of the paper.

26-2 ANALIZA LEGISLAŢIEI CU PRIVIRE LA COMBUSTIA LEMNULUI TRATAT

TREATED WOOD COMBUSTION REGULATION ANALYSIS
In the latest years the European Union has started a review of the
regulations about the combustion of the woody biomass, a resource
widely available on the Earth with neutral impact in increasing
greenhouse gas emissions. Firstly, an overview of the legal situation at
global level is presented, and then a detailed explanation of the Italian
regulation is the core of this article. Basically, in 2006 the introduction of
the Legislative Decree n. 152 has established that virgin wood falls in
the category of fuels, instead treated wood (deriving from woodfurniture
industry rejects) is considered as waste: the consequence is
that its combustion is subjected to more stringent restrictions in term of
process monitoring and emission limit values. Finally, this paper wants
to underline that the legislative framework is not completely clear, so
not homogeneous interpretations by local governments (responsible for
authorisations) are possible.
