On the basis of roundwood flow model, two roundwood balances were prepared. A wide range of available data was taken into consideration; data quality was evaluated and a proposal for improving their ...quality developed. Results of roundwood balance in the reference year 2004 showed that if official data for annual removals are considered, a lack of 536,000 m3 occurs. In the case of modelled (enlarged) removals, a roundwood balance is positive. Wood flow and data analysis should play an important role as part of strategic planning and decision making at sectorial, local, regional and national levels.
A mycoremediation system of wood substrate and fungal inoculum was established on an organically poor fly ash deposit at the Šoštanj Thermal Power Plant, Slovenia. A mini-block method with beech wood ...samples was used to select a suitable fungal isolate for inoculation into the mycoremediation system.
Pleurotus ostreatus ZIM 76 proved to be the most appropriate for further tests. Compared to the mass loss in a non-contaminated medium, wood degradation with the selected fungal isolate was reduced by 51% on wood substrate contaminated with 17% (w/w) fly ash. The deterioration processes of wood chips on inoculated and non-inoculated experimental plots were studied by ionic chromatographic analyses of volatile organic acids in water extracts. The presence of
P. ostreatus did not influence the concentrations of acetic and formic acids in water extracts from wood chips collected at experimental plots in different intervals from May 2006 to November 2007 comparing inoculated vs. non-inoculated plots.
