Reduction of wood-fired oven smoke: compliance and solutions with AH 250 soot reducers
The use of wood-fired ovens, although traditional and appreciated, involves the emission of smoke containing carbonaceous particulate and other pollutants, potentially harmful to human health and the environment. To ensure compliance with current regulations and promote sustainable practices, it is essential to adopt effective solutions for emission reduction.
Regulatory framework
Italian legislation, in line with European directives, imposes strict limits on emissions of particulate and other pollutants resulting from biomass combustion, including wood-fired ovens. Failure to comply with these limits may result in administrative and criminal penalties.
