Il monitoraggio dell'impatto odoroso causato degli impianti di conglomerati bituminosi è diventato un processo decisamente sfidante poiché, a causa della configurazione dell'impianto, alcuni dei processi di produzione coinvolgono aree molto ampie e aperte e le emissioni di tipo transitorio sono comuni e frequenti.
In questa conversazione, Pollution Analytical Equipment e il Dott. Giovanni Cappelli (ricercatore presso l'Università di Firenze) presentano un nuovo approccio per affrontare la sfida del monitoraggio delle emissioni odorigene provenienti degli impianti di conglomerati bituminosi in Europa.
Conversations about pollution, the environment, and how companies can do better in analyzing what's around us.

Good morning, everybody. And welcome back today for our third episode where we talk about other emission from bituminous mixer plants and water challenge, changing how we monitor these emission can be. We're here today with Giovanni Capelli, a researcher from the University of Florence, who happens to be also the author of a very interesting white paper on the remission. It is a pleasure to meet you, Giovanni.
Giovanni Cappelli
Thank you, Julia. Thank you. Thank you, everyone.
Julia Vendra
So Giovanni, tell us more about the approach you use to explain the new way of monitoring order emission from bituminous Mr. Plant, what is it about
Giovanni Cappelli
Well, so, as we know, what's the water treatment or bituminous mixture plants has a BMP and represent a common source of order. The characterization of the order impact from these plants is challenging due to different configuration, some phases of the production process involve Raj and the open areas. So, transformations are frequent and common, it is important to underline that focusing on the BMPs of order in these sites may arise from bitumen loading area. These areas are where I tend to be too many were pumping from I think track to deploy and reservoir or other important area are the bitumen was mixture releasing area where the final product is released in a lorry and it is where is it in the brain ranging from 170 to 190. degrees.
Julia Vendra
I see Giovanni, thank you, you've been extremely precise, but why is it challenging to track the BMP down,
Giovanni Cappelli
you know, the presence in ambientais can results in the discomfort of the employers setback not only also of the residents of the neighborhood areas. So, we read the report from past few years when the resident complained about the authorization and they alerted the authorities only so because nobody like orders and nobody wants to have such a such experience with with these with the with these issues.
Julia Vendra
Yeah. And of course, I mean, it can be extremely dangerous for our health. Right.
Giovanni Cappelli
Exactly. And there is an exam, couple of compounds that could cause psychosomatic symptoms as an exit a stress, headache, dizziness, nausea or loss of consciousness. So monitoring this substance should represent an appeal.
Julia Vendra
I totally agree with you. What do you think in your opinion, are the main challenges for institution you know, countries and authorities?
Giovanni Cappelli
Well, it is a crucial question Julia. First of all, let me say that it is not only about the protective order, the impact of the molecules exposure is determined by cognitive appraisal, promoting the interest but also by is affected by other several factors. Understanding this factor is essential and not always the governing bodies have established fair and effective regulation that this community needs. For example, in thinking there are European countries countries like Portugal, Greece, Austria, have no currently specific order legislation while other countries has Germany present the only specific regulation but for waste management activity or a specific industrial activity, not regulation, concerning the other emission in general.
Julia Vendra
I see. You talked about you know, neighboring countries, but what about Italy?
Giovanni Cappelli
Italy is accurate example of our the situation about auto remission is tricky. Italy have no national regulation. On one hand, we have some reason like Boulia or Lombardia that due to the intense industrial activity, insisting that territories have already introduced regulation and limits for other emission. On the other hand, other regions have not introduced yet a specific regulation. However, the interest of the community about these issues is arising. So the regulation will not be long gone.
Julia Vendra
I seem What about your study group? You work with us? You know, we pollution analytical equipment for so long. So, let me say We are glad to have you as partner. What were the main obstacles that you found while investigating this important issue?
Giovanni Cappelli
Well, you're right we we have been partners for long and also for us, it's a pleasure to work to work with you. I'd say it was difficult to characterize both special temporary and chemically altered remission from BMPs. That had grown several complaints from Naval houses that we have developed by a multi step monitoring approach to assess automation. This approach includes not only dynamical photometry but at the same time we have used the peaks is DC from pollution analytical equipment has been I said before, we have the need to spatiotemporally they find a model that was inefficient and is sp opting thanks to the versatility and the name features of the DTCC. These two methods in the first step of this all of our study was training with the auto stringers breed from the A bituminous conglomerated. And then it was the the estimate was placed between the plants and the neighboring houses to pinpoint the deviation events.
Julia Vendra
Giovanni, I think you've been extremely clear today. Thank you very much for being with us. And please come back whenever you like. And also don't forget to say hi to Florence for me.
Giovanni Cappelli
Thank you for this opportunity, Julia. For us, it's important that the group, the public and the community are informed on such important issues for the environment, but also for the health Florence.
Julia Vendra
Thank you. I think that's it for today. You can follow up our initiatives on our website pollution.it and if you're interested in reading the white paper, you can find it on our website. Thank you for being with us and talk to you soon die.
