My Son Has To Wear A Jockstrap

Composting plant effluent mills. SHAME


E 'news last week of discovery of an illegal dump where they were discharged the waste water, waste from the grinding of the olives, for brevity hereinafter referred to as AV.

Two people were reported on the loose, and risk the 'imprisonment of up to one year, an administrative penalty, the temporary closure of' activities, the cost of remediation of 'area, compensation for damage to property, etc, etc. ..

I believe that the 'odious crime and in the presence of the conditions of the Administrative Law City Council has a duty to become a civil party.

For years, some production continues unabated, and to cause harm to people and to reiterate 'environment. In some ways runs the 'moral obligation to an' action for damages in favor of the community. A 'civil action, the stress that these wicked deeds can not and should not be tolerated in the name of a supposed social utility of production. One way to give " THAT 'environmental education " expressed by our Mayor to the microphones of TG3-Puglia, 4 February.

a net short position to be imaginative and whispered slander.

AV In the past, were considered waste and were discharged into the sewers.

's introduction of law Merli has banned this practice in transition and the waters were considered a resource agronomic and allowed spreading on agricultural soils.

With the DL . 574 of 1996 have been issued rules on 'use of water for cultivation.

The Ministerial Decree of July 6, 2005 has regulated some articles relying on the regions' adoption of appropriate regulations.

With Regional Decree No. 27 Region Puglia December 7 2007 done a proper regulation of discipline.

Among other things, the Regulation obliges the manufacturer to notify the District / s to 'Harp sites will be used for agricultural purposes where the AV The communication must be sent at least 30 days before the 'beginning of spreading, coupled with a technical report relating to an agronomist' AV suitability for spreading on agricultural soils.

's extension of agricultural land should be declared to be the amount of AV permitted by law for spreading and produced in the previous year'.

L 'Arpa at the sites indicated should perform checks prevention and Subsequent (downstream controls).

downstream controls are designed to see if the farmland is poured a quantity of water than that provided by the legislation (50/80 cubic meters per hectare depending on the type of mill).

The above in order to avoid injury to land, crops and groundwater.

's use of AV as a resource increases the fertility of soil and waste are potentially suitable to replace almost entirely the' supply of chemical fertilizer in agriculture, raw materials more expensive.

Obviously this is a cost for production. How easy to imagine the controls are heavy and the opportunity to commit crime constitutes a 'hypothesis tutt' more than remote.

Bitonto represents an example of a widespread illegal practice of disposing of this denial, as evidenced in 2007 by the President of 'AQP Ivo Monteforte , from' survey in 2009 by State Forestry Bari , continued stench emitted from our treatment plant, from analysis provided by AQP, by 'order union Pice-247 November 2007, by 'order - Valley in August 2009, several press releases from our administration, from the countless newspaper articles that about a year now fill the newspapers and local news ( Antenna South and RAI 3).

icing on the cake, the recent complaint on the loose these two gentlemen. Quest 'is not an isolated incident, just a stroll through our fields to see the ruin perpetrated.

With regard to 'opportunities to use the water for agronomic use of certain interest is reading an article in the Magistrate Court of Cassation, dr. Maurizio Santoloci (between the 'other teaching techniques Environmental Police in the schools of our Police Forces). A strict view expressed by the judge on both the 'agronomic use of AV and the relative legislation .

Accused of Cassandra and open debate on the measure, the judge resigned from the national vice president of WWF.

How to blame him? The situation he denounced it fits perfectly to the situation that lives in our community. We are the first recipients of the bankruptcy law and is under the nostrils and eyes of all.

In Italy we produce 2 million tons / a. AV. Puglia alone produces about 50% of the national quantity. Bitonto with its 1.7 million olive trees is the capital of the Italian 'oil and water as a result of vegetation.

do not know the exact quantity of waste produced by our industrial reality. The engineering departments of our town well known quantities. Numbers derived, among 'other things, statements by the producers, according to DR 27, 12.7.2007.

Just think, a modern mill in a continuous cycle (three phases) for AV produces about 110% of the drupes worked. A staggering amount.

The olive harvest is almost completely mechanized and the harvest period is concentrated from November to January. A huge mass of olives need to be processed immediately.

To cope with processing such a huge production, concentrated in such a short period, many manufacturers have upgraded to using machines to "loop". They produce 50% more waste than traditional mills and two-step.

result a fast saturation of the storage tanks with obvious critical situations in disposal .

Criticality and costs . A deadly mix for people el 'environment. For years, residents of 167 are subjected to unspeakable environmental pressure caused by the overflow of illegal AV in 'adjacent sewage treatment plant.

The sea, land, groundwater, crops, sewage treatment plants are damaged while on our administrative rappresentatati 'argument sometimes niche. And then wake up on 'subject to' approach to elections. Last spring I smile in 'listen to the provincial electoral meetings. Many of the candidates had a moment oratory dedicated to our treatment plant. Carefully avoiding argue on the case "embarrassing" that a greater impact on the fault. Even the outgoing president of the Province of Bari, Divella, speaking on topics on BitontoTv 'wastewater treatment plant, ecological bomb in the city.

On the waters of vegetation, and outside of the City Council, in bars and Barbera, continue to argue controllers and laying the blame on a scapegoat for excellence is our Traffic Police Corps, now subject in a continuous "pigeon shooting". The city police in conjunction with ASL is devolved the issue of controls on inputs.

Controls are necessary but are often carried out by operators with no resources and inappropriate legislation. I also have observed a general lack of environmental sensitivity, due to a lack of preparation also cultural phenomenon.

The burden of inspections and lack of environmental sensitivity, due to an 'apparent inertia?

"Representatives of the people" who sit in the Council, where you will take responsibility to tackle the problem in a different key? When you stop of "demonizing" (verbally) some production to avoid degrading stabs a climate of which are already stretched?

For centuries, the vegetable water are a problem for the production and the community. Our "eighth wonder", represented by the sewers of our '500 Borgo Antico, were also built to be able to easily convey the waste water to be disposed of in the river Tifris.

However, I must give credit to this administration (delegation of Agriculture and the Environment) and our leadership (Dr. Michael Abbaticchio) that July 7 2008 virtuously teamed up with the 'ENEA for the construction of a plant membrane for processing waste water, rich of polyphenols, substances to be used for the construction of cosmetic and pharmaceutical products .

industrial use of water, considered a resource, an opportunity for commercial development.

The project was nominated in 2008 to "BARI 2015" el 'next year the Scientific Committee has approved ' the Idea Project worksite 's work. The project now lies in wait for support from the Apulia region.

However, this opportunity could not discover resolving the environmental problem posed by AV. Certainly will contribute the environment, but is not eligible to run for resolving the problem.

The technology proposed by 'ENEA has passed the experimental stage, and a pilot plant is being carried out at a mill Scandriglia (Rieti).

The technology is complex and expensive, since the product to be produced is intended for the pharmaceutical and cosmetics sector. You will need to treat water as a food and therefore they will face costs for modification of plants in same production of olives. a cost that the production seems hesitant in supporting .

the bottom as not to share the concerns of the millers? They produce oil, mica polyphenols for pharmaceutical!

currently producing oil without losing money represents a 'difficult business, with profits more and more narrow ; venture into other uses of water, complicating their work, which I emphasize is to produce oil.

For the production vegetable water are refusal to get rid as soon as possible at the lowest possible cost. Point.

E 'I am convinced that the shedding of water vegetation on farmland is not the solution to environmental cross-cutting our production and that other roads should be covered, such as to build a composting plant effluent mills.

conviction that comes from reading some documents, the technology been available for a decade of 'apparent inadequacy of the rules on' use cultivation.

Carry a paragraph of a ' investigation conducted by' Harp-Molise environmental impact of disposing of the waste water of oil mills.

" The research conducted so far in Italy and other countries on the European producers of vegetable water spreading on agricultural soils have focused mainly on technical and agronomic aspects of the problem ignores the economic assessments that are often partial and limited to specific production situations. The few indications in the literature do not allow then to make a sufficiently detailed and structured assessment of technical and economic viability of this solution, especially if we take into account the social costs due to a possible environmental pollution or the heaviness of the controls system.

Even fewer have studied the economic aspects relating to possible treatments (composting ) of olive mill wastewater that would stabilize the organic content present in the wastewater and organic amendments to obtain extremely useful for the improvement of physical-chemical characteristics of soils, especially those of southern Italy known to be deficient in organic matter. This solution would allow the distribution dell'ammendante throughout the year without the hassle of the campaign at a concentration of olive processing in a limited number of days, and most in autumn is characterized by abundant rainfall. Also for this solution should be carefully evaluated both direct costs (raw materials, energy, labor, inspection, maintenance, etc..) indirect costs (including depreciation, operating costs, taxes, etc..) and the revenues needed to establish the viability of investments. "

Bitonto certainly not lacking in raw materials and disposal of these wastes is a scourge for many neighboring localities, it is desirable, as similarly already worked for the 'plant membrane ENEA, that our administration is dealing with a table of open dialogue with the forces in the field to verify the feasibility presenting such a solution .

Let us not miss this opportunity. Others may benefit.

As the plant ENEA. But how, Bito is the capital of water and vegetation Scandriglia realize the 'pilot plant? A 'guilty of no other opportunity.

and currently waiting for a technological solution (uncertain), to mitigate the 'environmental impact produced by waste water there is the pressing of daily production controls.

A production that was, extremely, from the need to be located in an 'area outside the city center. But this is a 'different story, that force will be necessary to deal with gaming.

All of course associated with covers of the sewage treatment facility with adjoining deodorization, promised "a deep breath" from 'administration Valla.

clear: for coverage of the sludge is defined as the one represented " BAT " capable of mitigating the effects of fumes emitted from 'plant. In short, the most expensive ... like 'we pay for water AQP-Puglia Region.

This is because it appears to me!
