Interest in the use of biomass for energy has increased significantly in the last few years. The latest report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change highlights the influence mankind has had on the climate: an unprecedented increase in GHG levels in the last 800,000 years and a rise of 40% in CO 2 concentrations since pre-industrial times. The challenge now is to find energy alternatives, and in this context, one important option is bioenergy, one of the most important energy sources of the future. In light of this, the goal of this paper was to assess the sustainable potential of woodfuel resources in Italy using WISDOM methodology. WISDOM, developed by the FAO, has been applied in many countries around the world. From this study, at national level, household consumption was at 19.3 Mt in 2003 (average value), while the potential supply of woody biomass (productivity) was 24.9 Mt (average value), with a surplus of almost 6 million tons between household consumption and productivity. This study represents an advance in knowledge of the biomass potential for energy use in Italy, and, as such, is subject to possible future improvement. Forest bioenergy development creates good opportunities to mobilize the production potential of European forests, and to contribute to a more climate-friendly, bio-based economy.

The subject of this paper is the general formulation of a model for scarf adhesive joints in timber beams within the framework of plane linear elasticity. It is assumed that wood is orthotropic. The joint can be subjected to a complex loading state including an axial force, a bending moment and a shear force. The joint model is given in displacements by means of a set of four partial differential equations of the second order. Boundary conditions cater for sharp edges in the adherends. Complete solutions to theory of elasticity equations are presented and discussed. The manner in which the joint transmits the axial force, the bending moment and the shear force is presented. It is shown that the scarf joint does not feature stress concentrations and that there exists an approximate equivalence of displacements and stress states in scarf jointed and continuous elements.

The strength of joints with a wooden ring, which are protected by international patent was compared with the strength of tenon and dowel joints, and consequently the applicability and suitability for producing such window frames was established. The strength of different implementations of angular joints of window profiles was tested on a tensile-testing machine. It was established that the average ultimate strength of joints with a wooden ring was higher than the ultimate strength of tenon joints, which was chosen as an upper reference limit.

To increase the profitability of the pulp and paper industry, additional value added products from lignocelluloses are needed, and consistent with this goal, a biorefinery concept based on the sodium carbonate pre-extraction of Trema orientalis prior to pulping was proposed. The solid content in the sodium carbonate pre-extracted liquor was much lower than the hot water pre-extraction, which affected the pre-hydrolysis yield and overall pulp yield positively. The alkaline pre-extraction had a beneficial effect on delignification in the subsequent soda-AQ-pulping. In addition, the alkaline pre-extraction improved the pulp bleachability. The papermaking properties of the alkaline pre-extracted soda-AQ pulp were very close to non-extracted pulp after D0EpD1 bleaching.
