(by Damiano Belli,Ambienthesis CEO) Pursuing the ultimate goal of the abatement of environmental pollution and the waste of resources and energy, the shared intention of maximizing the recovery and recycling of materials and energy sources is recorded throughout the world.
"The situation is worrying and must be tackled urgently. We all agreed on this. But this is not just about energy, but about our consumption model. It is a complex challenge, which can only be won by everyone's competition: who produces, who consumes, and politics that dictates the rules"In fact stated Claudio Descalzi, CEO of Eni SpA at the Vatican conference on global pollution[1].
The population and above all the local authorities and the territorial enterprises are in fact doing their part in the fight against climate change and the aforementioned waste. "Some indicators seem to mark an even better trajectory than expected"United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres said at a summit on the environment held last March[2].
A virtuous example of energy management is provided by the city of London, which will see its own in October City, the historic central district Square Mile, meet its energy needs using only renewables[3]. A historic change of pace that will allow the British capital to reduce CO2 emissions and at the same time reconvert the energy generated by the thermal treatment of waste.
Looking at the national territory, however, the legislation that encourages the production of biomethane also through the conversion of plants that currently produce biogas is recent, with the aim of prolonging its life cycle. The action of Green Holding which is evaluating the realization of biomethane plants and the integration of new technologies for the increase of the biomethane produced in the waste water purification system. The intention is to encourage territories and companies to combine the exploitation of the organic waste fraction and to improve the water purification cycle system with the development of sustainable mobility.
All this, of course, with a view to promoting the planning and implementation of circular economy systems, to ensure that waste no longer has an impact on the environment but rather is exploited for its reconversion and reuse useful for the whole community. territorial.
It is therefore a turnaround that has already begun but which must constantly feed itself through a synergy between all the territorial actors, with the sole purpose of eliminating any corrosive factor for the environment and for the people who populate it.
