Assessment of environmental risk related to unsound, use of technologies and mass tourism

Obiettivo

Assessment of the environmental risk factors related to: unsound use of technologies, mass tourism and inappropriate environmental management.
- Mapping of the environmental factors and risk areas on the microscale.
- Suggest remedies or mitigative methods to reduce the negative impacts of mass tourism. Suggest heating/air conditioning systems which take into account the problem of how to reduce the suspended particulate matter and the soiling of exhibits. Provide the scientific basis for the proper location of objects and vents and regulation about the spatial intake and distribution of heat, humidity, light.

At present, various modern air-conditioning devices and unsound building materials are commonly applied in historical buildings and museums, without clear knowledge of the immediate and long term effects. No regulation exists on heating or air conditioning in the context of conservation and in particular where the hot/cold air intakes and outlets and moisture supply must be placed, but their position is critical in determining the dynamics and stability of the indoor atmosphere, the homogeneity of heat and vapour distribution, the deposition of gaseous and particulate pollutants and biodeterioration. Also the lighting system is responsible for causing convective motions and soiling. Mass tourism generates important microclimate perturbations and dramatically increases the indoor concentration of water vapour and CO2, as well as the deposition rate and concentration of particulate matter and other noxious substances. Inappropriate management is another important risk factor.
The geometry of a room, the placement of the objects, the location of air intakes,etc. are not independent variables and they are here considered globally in strict connection with all the problems linked to microclimate, environmental chemistry, air pollution, deposition of particulate matter and microbiology.
This proposal joins the multi-disciplinary efforts of scientists with a long experience of indoor problems. They will apply non-destructive methods (e.g. thermodynamic mapping, optical diffraction analysis of the suspended aerosols), will identify environmental risk factors like e.g. temperature and humidity cycles, biocontamination and soiling of works of art by aerosol deposition (assessment by physical measurements of the particle size range responsible for soiling, in combination with individual aerosol particle analysis, by e.g. automated electron microprobe analysis and transmission electron microscopy with X-ray analysis, will identify the indoor and outdoor sources of these particles) and measure and map the risk areas inside the buildings. Attention will be paid to reduce at maximum the different deposition mechanisms and to clean the air. Three museums will be considered (Norwich, Venise and Vienna) in order to complete the past experience and contribute to the identification of the above problems and to suggest solutions.
