Laboratorio Olfattometrico @ PoliMI

Dal 5 all’8 novembre si è tenuta a Rimini ECOMONDO - ITALIAN EXHIBITION GROUP, la fiera internazionale leader nei settori della green e circular economy. Evento di riferimento per l'Europa e il Mediterraneo, Ecomondo riunisce aziende, stakeholder, policy maker, ricercatori e istituzioni per condividere tecnologie e strategie a supporto del Green Deal Europeo. Il Politecnico di Milano ha partecipato con una delegazione di 30 tra professori, ricercatori e assegnisti, coinvolti in oltre dieci conferenze su temi chiave della sostenibilità ambientale. Tra i temi di ricerca affrontati, la valorizzazione dei fanghi di depurazione, l’ottimizzazione dei trattamenti delle acque reflue, il riuso delle acque, gli impatti degli impianti di recupero energetico dai rifiuti e il recupero di materiali critici da batterie esauste, pannelli fotovoltaici e turbine eoliche. Questa presenza conferma il ruolo del Politecnico come punto di riferimento per la ricerca e l’innovazione al servizio della sostenibilità ambientale. --- From 5 to 8 November, ECOMONDO - ITALIAN EXHIBITION GROUP, the leading international trade fair in the green and circular economy sectors, was held in Rimini. Ecomondo brings together companies, stakeholders, policy makers, researchers and institutions to share technologies and strategies to support the European Green Deal.   The Politecnico di Milano participated with a delegation of 30 professors, researchers and research fellows, involved in over ten conferences on key issues of environmental sustainability. Among the research topics addressed, the valorization of sewage sludge, the optimization of wastewater treatments, the reuse of water, the impacts of energy recovery plants from waste and the recovery of critical materials from exhausted batteries, photovoltaic panels and wind turbines.   This presence confirms the role of the Politecnico as a reference point for research and innovation at the service of environmental sustainability.   #PolimiSustainability

I'm very happy to announce that the final study of my PhD research has been published! Conducted in collaboration between the RAHH - Risk Assessment for Human Health group of Università degli Studi dell'Insubria and Laboratorio Olfattometrico @ PoliMI, the study presents an innovative probabilistic approach for assessing occupational exposure risk of olfactometric examiners involved in dynamic olfactometry. The article is available in #openaccess on Toxics MDPI at the following link: https://lnkd.in/dj35Udst. A heartfelt thanks to the research team (Andrea Spinazzè, Marzio Invernizzi, Andrea Cattaneo, Domenico Maria Cavallo e Selena Sironi) for their invaluable support and contribution!

It gives me great pleasure, and even greater satisfaction, to share with you my latest editorial effort: the book "ODOROUS EMISSIONS: MONITORING AND ABATEMENT," published in Elsevier's "Advances in Chemical Engineering" series. This book was born from the combination of my end-of-pipe technology course and the research activities of the Laboratorio Olfattometrico @ PoliMI. I am particularly proud of this work because it represents well what I believe engineering should be: a meeting of theoretical and lab research with the practical world of industry and technology. Indeed, the authors come from both universities and private companies with expertise in specific fields. I would like to thank them all for their valuable contribution!
