SOME OPEN ISSUES IN ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING OF IPPC PLANTS: AIR EMISSIONS MEASUREMENTS

Gaetano Battistella, Giuseppe Di Marco

Abstract

This paper describes some 'open issues' coming from the application of the authorization decrees licensing IPPC Plants in Italy at national level that have to respect monitoring and control procedures – as prescribed – in terms of air emissions measurements.<br /> The release of IPPC operational licensees, in fact, has given place to hundreds of new technical situations in these Plants where pollution is now under control, where monitoring and reporting must now be developed.<br /> These questions, on the other side, can be considered as giving also new opportunities for research and development for new methodologies and studies in order to reach results able to solve them.<br /> Kinds of these new techniques – as technologies and managerial procedures - can help to solve these problems in order to support better application of IPPC permits and besides also some preliminary comments and suggestions needed to match this new deal.
