1 49th International Symposium on Forestry Mechanization September 2016, Warsaw (Poland) Environmental assessment of two different logging methods in coppice Andrea Laschi 1, Enrico Marchi 1, Sara González-García 2 1 University of Florence - Department of Agricultural, Food and Forestry Systems 2 University of Santiago de Compostela - Department of Chemical Engineering
2 Introduction: the importance of wood biomass No-renewable resources Vs Renewable resources Sustainable perspective Wood biomass EU Directive 2009/28EC: mandatory target of a 20% share of energy from renewable sources in overall Community energy consumption by 2020 Estimate: 42% of total renewable energy will be obtained by wood biomass
3 What about the environmental profile of wood biomass? Renewable zero emissions Wood is a renewable material, but its production implies impacts Inputs Ouputs
4 What about the environmental profile of wood biomass? Renewable zero emissions Wood is a renewable material, but its production implies impacts Inputs How is the environmental profile of wood extracted from coppices under traditional management? Ouputs
5 Aim of the study To assess the environmental impacts due to forest operations in traditional coppices in central Italy Flat / low steep terrains SWS Short Wood System Steep / very steep terrains WTH Whole Tree Harvesting BY MEANS OF LIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT
6 Life Cycle Assessment Electricity Wood Machines Disposal and/or recover Raw materials extraction CO 2 Heat PM 10 Water Inputs Use LCA Raw materials processing and transport SO 2 Outputs Fuels Lubricants Heat Transport and distribution UNI ISO Final product manufacturing and packaging NOx PM 2,5 Electricity CH 4
7 System boundaries SWS on Flat / low steep terrain M Machines F Fuels T Transport of workers L Chain oil E Emissions Avg slope: 22% t/ha of fresh firewood (1 m length)
8 System boundaries WTH on steep / very steep terrain M Machines F Fuels T Transport of workers L Chain oil E Emissions Avg slope: 51% t/ha of fresh wood: 75.6 t firewood 22.7 t chips
9 Life Cycle Inventory Primary data Secondary data From work studies: Productivities (PMH 0 ); Fuel and lubricants consumption; Transport of workers; Machine characteristics; Wood volumes processed Only for background processes From ecoinvent database SimaPro Recipe V Impact categories
10 Results
11 CC Results OD TA FE WTH WTH WTH ME POF WTH FD WTH WTH WTH
12 Discussion Wood extraction environmental hotspot High energy requirements High fuel consumptions Heavy machines Higher use of raw materials Lower productivities Exception: Felling and processing in POF due to Gasoline Transport of workers Around 15% in SWS Around 10% in WTH
13 Scenario: Variations in gas exchanges after soil compaction Soil compaction effects considered: CH 4 Less absorption Higher emissions of N 2 0 (Tepee et al., 2004) Compacted surface SWS: 30% - WTH: 13,5% (Lucci, 1987) CH 4 = 23 CO 2eq (IPCC, 2001) N 2 O = 296 CO 2eq SWS: +10% CO 2eq WTH: +3% CO 2eq
14 Conclusions The importance of understanding the impacts of wood as renewable material LCA as an useful tool for the environmental assessment of forest operation SWS apparently better than WTH Ergonomics BUT Risks for workers Productivity Operating on different conditions Future developments: needs of deeper investigations on soil emissions
