Among many visitors Walid Ben Amor comes to Valladolid every year all the way from Tunis and represents his company Abou Walid Group. 3.

Particle restrictions in the Ecodesign Regulation will affect 80 percent of biomass stoves and 20 percent of pellet stoves that are manufactured today, and 100 percent of fireplaces. As for eco-labeling, although the most advanced pellet stoves can obtain the A++ class, many will remain in class A +. Significant changes are not expected in terms of product range and pellet stoves will benefit the most. Medium-scale power plants of between 1-50 MW will be affected by the new directive from 2016, when emissions limits and dates will be binding. Emission control technologies Controlling emissions requires adopting good primary measures: choosing the right fuel, good equipment design, proper regulation and proper maintenance and user behaviour. Alejandro Sanchez, from Spanish company LSolé, stressed the importance of an engineering and manufacturing strategy to maximise combustion and minimise emissions in biomass boilers. Some proactive practices developed for fireplaces are critical to minimise emissions. Sanchez pointed out the relationship between high energy efficiency, minimal maintenance costs and reduced emissions. Next year Despite the positive take on falling visitor numbers, AVEBIOM sees it as something that can clearly be improved upon, which is why the Expobiomasa team is rethinking parts of its strategy and intensifying some of the activities aimed at attracting professionals to future events.
