Three years ago in Genoa, with the collaboration of some shipowners, an experimental activity was started. In order to response to the numerous reports of dense and persistent fumes caused by ships in the port area, in cooperation with the Port authorities of Genoa, the enviromental agency of Ligura (Arpal), has been monitoring some ferries that dock in Genoa; and the Arpal technicians have continuously measured the emissions of the entire route.
During the Forum, the analytical results obtained will be presented, to verify if any existing limits has been exceeded, and will be evaluate possible measures to minimize pollutant emissions in the atmosphere during the operation of ships.
The event is part of the Genoa Shipping Week, that will be held in Genova from 28 to 30 June .
