• Increasing emissions from wood combustion in cities and rual areas (renewable energy)

• Significant impact of wood combustion on elevated ambient concentrations of particulate matter (PM) in winter 1

• High contribution of wood combustion to ambient concentrations of PAH and oxidized PAH 1

• Actual evidence for accute, non-carcinogenic health effects of PAH and PAH derivatives 2,3

Stoves: Pellet stove, „simple“ stove, „high quality“ stove (both DIN-Plus)Fuel: Pellet, split logs (beech, spruce), wood-briquettes, brown-coal-briquettesBurning conditions: good to bad (e.g. ignition phase)

� Average emission factors: PM10: 120 mg/MJ (evaluated for Augsburg)

Benzo[a]pyrene: ~ 350 ng/mg (of PM10 emitted)

Potassium: 58 µg/mg (of PM10 emitted)

*: derived from ambient monitoring data. Levoglucosan: 126 µg/mg (of PM10 emitted)*

Wood Burning in Augsburg: Emission inventory

Residential heating systems in theAugsburg municipal area (2006)- About 14.200 (53%) of all registered

fireplaces are single stoves for solid (bio-)fuels.

- Energy consumption ca. 320 TJ/a equal to about 2.1% of domestic heating energy.

- PM10 emissions about 38 t/a equal to about 30% of total PM10 emissions in Augsburg.

Summary

Indicators for PM from Wood combustion: Resin acids, Retene,

Potassium, Levoglucosan, Phenols (Lignin decomposition)

Wood burning emission factors (household heating, Germany): Potassium: 58 µg/mg PM10 Levoglucosan: 126 µg/mg PM10

Ambient concentrations (Augsburg, Germany, winter): About 7.5 %or 2.9 µg/m2 of ambient PM10 originated from wood combustion.

Health relevance suspected to be high: About 80 % of PAH burden (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) explained by wood combustion

Further investigation required: Novel measurement techniques as

well as toxicological in-vitro & in-vivo tests and specific epidemiologic studies shall be implemented to evaluate impact of wood combustion
