Air pollution in residential areas from wood-fired heatings

The target of this study was to investigate the local air pollution from wood-fired heatings in residential areas. Particle-phase PM10 samples were collected at a residential site Dettenhausen near Stuttgart during winter 2005/06 and in Bechtoldsweiler near Hechingen during winter 2006/07.

The concentrations of PM 10 in the residential site were found higher with the range of 8-96 μg/m³ during the strong winter 2005/06 than the mild winter 2006/07. In this study different organic compounds were detected and quantified by gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The significant concentrations of wood smoke tracer compounds found in the ambient air suggest that the influence of residential wood combustion on ambient air quality is significant. Based on the correlation coefficients it can be concluded that in the investigated residential site about 36% to 64% of ambient PM 10 concentrations can be attributed to residential wood combustion.

Die innerstaatliche Umsetzung des Pariser Klimaschutzübereinkommens - ein Rechtsvergleich
© Lexxion Verlagsgesellschaft mbH (8/2024)
Like all public international law treaties, the Paris Climate Accords rely on national law for their implementation. The success of the agreement therefore depends, to a large extent, on the stepstaken or not taken by national governments and legislators as well as on the instruments and mechanisms chosen for this task. Against this background, the present article compares different approaches to the implementation of the Paris Agreement, using court decisions as a means to assess their (legal) effectiveness.
