COST ACTION E22: Environmental optimisation of wood protection 3. RESEARCH ACTIVITIES BY WORKING GROUPS In this section the research themes carried out by researchers in the Institute are associated with the topics listed in the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) of COST Action E22. Working Group 1: PERFORMANCE Scope: Traditional wood preservatives, specifying durability requirements, optimum bio-effective life, creosote, field performance using soil, insects in Europe, climatic conditions. Traditional wood preservatives Biodegradation and Preservation Lab • Fungi and insects control in ancient buildings • Preservatives effectiveness: tests against insects and fungi • Evaluation of biocides loss after ageing procedures • Lyctidae control in sawmill using boron impregnation Chemical Characterisation Lab • Analytical methods for wood preservatives Specifying durability requirements Biodegradation and preservation Lab • Durability of Larix decidua from different region in Italy • Durability of Robinia • Durability of Douglas • Durability of native and foreign species against fungi and marine borers • Durability of native species against insects • Preservatives effectiveness tests against insects and fungi • Evaluation of biocides loss after ageing procedures Chemical Characterisation Lab • Chemical characterisation of wood attacked by insects • Analytical methods for wood preservatives 198
Working Group 2: IMPACTS COST ACTION E22: Environmental optimisation of wood protection Scope: Risk assessment, optimum bio-effective life, remediation and wood wastes. Risk assessment Biodegradation and Preservation Lab • Evaluation of biocides loss after ageing procedures Chemical Characterisation Lab • Analytical methods for wood preservatives Wood waste and treated wood Chemical Characterisation Lab • Analytical methods for wood preservatives Working Group 3: INNOVATIONS Scope: Application of modified wood, heat treatment, insect growth regulators, new biocides, non-biocidal treatments, resins and oils. Insect growth regulators Biodegradation and preservation Lab • Field tests on Insect growth regulator (IGR) to control subterranean termites 4. CONCLUSIONS In Italy at present there is a strong trend, as to the past, to use wood for external use. The Italian participation to the Cost Action E22 is of considerable importance for the following themes: • studies on natural durability in different hazard classes; • service life of wood structures protected by biocidal and non-biocidal treatments. 5. ANNEXES Annex 1 lists the Organisations who responded to the request for information, together with details about their contact persons and co-ordinates. Annex 2 summarises the activities in the particular Working Groups of E22 using the standard template. 199
