Cementirossi, now we start again from scratch
Fumane. Cementirossi, everything to be redone. TAR of Veneto accept the appeal against the cement and cancel all the resolutions of the Province with regard to the amount of waste used in the production of cement. Rejected also the project of expansion and modernization of the plant, which provided, among other things, the construction of a tower 103 meters to contain a new oven cyclones. The appeal had been filed in 2009 by Legambiente, the association Valpolicella 2000, the committee Fumane Futura and seven private citizens. The bombshell came on late Tuesday evening with a tamtam of phone calls by surprise. "We did not expect a decision so complete," says the chairman of Fumane Futura, Mimmo Conchi, in response to warm " ball around the court and pull his ears to the Province and municipalities. The policy should protect the environment and look to the future of an area, especially where there is conflict on initiatives always regarded as unquestionable and projects from a company as powerful Cementirossi. What were the interests protected so far? Now we can talk about new plans, perhaps even conversion . The appeal was accepted in toto, on the substance and form, and especially looked at the situation in the cement in a total Valpolicella: the environmental impact assessments for the use of waste and modernization of the plant with construction of the tower must be seen in one view, not separately , according to the associations. These, and Valpolicella Fumane Futura 2000, "must be considered legitimate," says the sentence, "since their undoubted roots in the Valpolicella area, and their statutory purpose: the statutes shows that the two associations are responsible for protecting and enhancing the environment." Marezzane on excavations, however, there is nothing new: a favorable opinion given by the Province and the region is subject to the binding opinion of the Superintendent, who has yet to deliver, as there is not clear about the requirements and provisions not submitted incomplete. The consequences of the decision of the TAR, as well as freeze the expansion project for defect of form and substance and motivation are incoherent, concerning the use of waste, returning to the simplified procedure: that is, we go from 80 thousand tons of ash Heavy derived from incinerators year to mix the cement mixture, used currently, to 12 thousand tonnes previously authorized. Such authorizations must be renewed every six months. "The ruling effectively rejects the prospect of industrial revival in Valpolicella with waste disposal, which causes us great concern," continues Conchi, " we submitted in the application many comments which have all been accepted, where we found omissions. For example, it lacks, because it never presented the plan, that it is very important . Satisfaction was also expressed by the president of Legambiente Veneto, Michele Bertucco: "The result is very important, because then you can rethink the future of Valpolicella is especially important that they have been accepted all instances of the application and acknowledged that the formal procedures required by the Province was flawed." Lorenzo Albi, president of Legambiente Verona, adds: "The award of the Tar is exemplary, as it notes that the same committee of the provincial Environmental Impact Assessment had stressed the incompatibility of these elements, however, had a favorable opinion anyway. There were many contradictions in the decisions taken by the Province, as well as defects in form and substance, with inconsistent or do not give their reasons, and this was taken into account by the court. Is put also in evidence too of viability Fumane, which included a round table discussion among all stakeholders, ever, is also contradicted the assessments made by the City of Fumane. Overall, it is declared the illegality of the proposed extension. This decision of the TAR of Veneto certainly will mean that there is a revision of the waste by the use of cement in general and it can be assumed that this use is henceforth illegal. " "In fact, so far," continues Albi, " cement works have always done whatever they wanted. And you can not continue to say that there is now in Valpolicella the cement factory for 40 years, so we accept everything that comes .
USE CDR in cement and power plants
Study European Commission, DG Environment, the use of RDF in power plants and cement factories that says:
• Compared ai combustibili convenzionali, il CDR presenta maggiori concentrazioni di cloro, cadmio, mercurio, piombo, rame e minori concentrazioni di zolfo e nichel.
• Le emissioni di mercurio dai cementifici sono il loro punto debole se alimentati con CDR.
• Il punto più critico è l’impatto dei prodotti (cemento) e dei sottoprodotti (ceneri) delle co-combustioni in which, over the use of conventional fuels, there has been a greater concentration of chloride, lead, cadmium, copper, zinc.
• Il punto più critico è l’impatto dei prodotti (cemento) e dei sottoprodotti (ceneri) delle co-combustioni in which, over the use of conventional fuels, there has been a greater concentration of chloride, lead, cadmium, copper, zinc.
• The experiments on the environmental impact resulting from the partial replacement of coal power station in Fusina, with CDR
• Compared to the use of conventional fuels, the CDR has higher concentrations of chlorine, cadmium, mercury, lead, copper and minor concentrations of sulfur and nickel.
• It therefore determines the highest emission of ammonia, chlorine, mercury, total PAHs, dioxins and furans.
• It therefore determines the highest emission of ammonia, chlorine, mercury, total PAHs, dioxins and furans.
• The concentration of mercury, with its characteristics of bioaccumulation and non-biocompatibility, increases in emissions of the plant consistently two to five times with the power to CDR.
• Ultimately, the tests performed in the power plant of Fusina has allowed us to verify that the replacement of fuel of conventional, with CDR, worsens the quality of the emissions significantly for different pollutants, including dioxins and furans.
• Each cement enters the atmosphere and produces millions of cubic meters per day of gas pollutants and carcinogens, comprising:
• polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (polychlorinated biphenyls, dioxins, dibenzofurans) and heavy metals.
• All extremely hazardous substances that are persistent and accumulate in living organisms,
• coarse dust (PM10) and fine (PM2, 5) and nanoparticles (0.1-0.2 PM10) consisting mainly of heavy metals (non-biodegradable or biocompatible).
• "Nanoparticles" that escape the filters of the cement, they are not even detected by the current systems for monitoring emissions
• coarse dust (PM10) and fine (PM2, 5) and nanoparticles (0.1-0.2 PM10) consisting mainly of heavy metals (non-biodegradable or biocompatible). Continuous monitoring:
• Flow of effluent - Humidity - Temperature - Dust - O2 - NOx - SO2 - CO discontinuous control or periods (1 or 2 times a year just cash) from autodenuncia to
• Metals and their compounds - VOCs (volatile organic compounds) - HCl - HF - PAHs (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) - PCDD / PCDF (dioxins / furans) - PCB (polychlorinated biphenyls)
• By the emission of dust from industrial chimneys, Newscast FIMMG (Italian Federation of General Practitioners) in May 2006 reports:
