Local Freshwater Appropriation Assessment in a wood-energy supply chain in Sardinia
In the present work, the assessment of the freshwater appropriation for
the future energy production by using forest residues will be discussed.
Reference has been made to the methodology known as Water Footprint
Assessment. The main objectives are related to the analysis of the
appropriation of freshwater, by dividing the water volumes related to each
component of an hypothetical small supply chain and by separating both
the internal and external shares, with respect to the preset boundaries.
Those ones are the limits of the Monte Olia public forest, which is located
in the Northern side of Sardinia Island (Italy). This assessment of the
freshwater appropriation is a valid tool in the wood-energy supply chain
design, in the view of a more sustainable local water management
Acque di miniera dell’Iglesiente: storia, analisi e caratterizzazione
The paper is concerned with the analysis of the groundwater resources contained in the deep carbonate aquifer
situated in the Iglesiente region in SW Sardinia. The study aimed to determine whether these resources could alleviate
the region's water scarcity problem. Based on considerations of a general nature and on recent monitoring data we
have studied the evolution of, as well as the current water situation, in both quantitative and qualitative terms. This has
made it possible to update knowledge and acquire new data for the Acquaresi area. A preliminary characterization and
classification of the groundwater in this area has been performed to determine environmental conditions in the aquifer
and to assess suitability of the groundwater for drinking, domestic, irrigation and industrial uses
