P05I3   Indoor air pollution is one of the biggest concerns in terms of public health. In France, it was estimated that indoor air pollution would bring about a socio-economic cost of around 20 billion euros per year. In this context, the treatment of this kind of pollution has become an important challenge.

   The CUBAIR project aimed to develop and evaluate an original prototype, combining air purification techniques such as adsorption, filtration and photocatalysis. The evaluation of the performance of this prototype was carried out in situ during 10 months and different measurements were taken for parameters and pollutants such as nitrogen oxides and VOCs with emphasis on BTEX and some aldehydes. Other measurement campaigns were carried out to determine particle concentrations (PM1, PM2.5, PM10), microbiological parameters, comfort parameters (temperature, relative humidity), as well as the air flow of the prototype. The results show a good removal efficiency (RE) of nitrogen oxides with a RE of 86% for the NO2. Likewise, PM1 was reduced by more than 75%.

tarpomatic website   Tarpomatic is a daily cover that is placed on the tip face of an active cell of a landfill. This solution was presented during the 2019 International Solid Waste Association world congress, although thiscompany has already a trajectory of 25 years delivering tarpaulin covers around the world.

   Managing odour impact of landfills is usually challenging. There are not many useful methods to abate odour from these large surfaces with plenty of fugitive odours coming from everywhere. One of the main sources of odour emission is the working front of the landfill. A daily cover of the tip face of a landfill is a must, when there are odour complaints from the communities nearby. Tarpomatic offers a quick and cheap way to cover this surface.

meeting WG41 Delft

   WG41 of CEN is having today its second day of meetings to try to deliver a new standard on Instrumental Odour Monitoring Systems (IOMS). The meeting is taking place in Delft and a few representatives from Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark, France and Spain are at this moment discussing the final details to deliver the draft of this standard, hopefully by 2020.

   Technical groups 1/2, 3 and 5 are proposing new drafts that will be discussed during this meeting. This is the last meeting of 2019 that has been quite intensive in terms of work and number of meetings. 5 meetings took place in Antwerp, Milan, Bilbao, Barcelona and Delft only in this year.
