      Ph.D.

      The main goals of the program are the study and the characterization of the wood biomass for energy chain. Different harvesting and storage systems will be analyzed in order to identify the most suitable way to maximize energetic yields and minimize management costs or risks for human health. In addition, combustion processes for energy generation will be analyzed in order to characterize the deriving emissions of pollutants.
