T1 - Isolation of soil borne bacteria and fungi from treated timber N2 - Most research in the last few decades has focused on the development of new strategies to control biological attack and the means to quantify this. Comparatively little work has been done to examine the effect that treated timber might have on its surrounding environment. This presentation will describe a methodology that attempts to detect any changes which might occur in the soil microflora following the introduction of timber treated with a number of chemical agents containing organic active ingredients (a.i.). It was also the purpose to isolate organisms that can break down organic a.i.. A technique was developed to determine whether the presence and nature of a timber preservative influenced the size and composition of a microbial population that colonised timber when buried in soil. Samples of treated timber were incubated in a solution eluted from soil that contained a diverse, viable microbial population. After incubation, the size and composition of the microflora both in the eluate and adhering to the timber was examined.

Hierbei spielt die erhöhte Oxalsäureproduktion des Pilzes und die daraus resultierende Kupferoxalatausfällung im Holz die entscheidende Rolle. Das Kupfer wird auf diese Weise für den Pilz weitgehend unschädlich gemacht und andere Holzschutzmittelbestandteile wie z.B. Chrom- und Arsenverbindungen verlieren ihre Fixierung im Holz und werden wasserlöslich. Dies führt zu Frühausfällen von chemisch geschütztem Holz im Erdkontakt innerhalb weniger Jahre. Laboruntersuchungen haben gezeigt, dass der Holzabbau durch A. vaillantii bei hoher Wasserverfügbarkeit außerhalb des Holzes angeregt werden kann. Das hohe Feuchtigkeitsbedürfnis des Pilzes ist möglicherweise die Ursache für den Befall von Holz in bis zu 1,2 m Bodentiefe. Neben der hohen Bodenfeuchte gibt es Anhaltspunkte für weitere Parameter, die zur positiven Selektion von A. vaillantii und damit seiner stellenweise starken Ausbreitung führen. Diese sind hohe Toleranz gegenüber bereits vorhandenen niedrigen pH-Werten im Boden, das aktive Einstellen niedriger pH-Werte im Boden durch Säureabgabe und die Festlegung von Kuper als Kupferoxalat.

T1 - Environmental Risk Assessment of Treated Timber in Service - the Environment Focus Group Approach N2 - In the context of the Biocidal Products Directive (98/8/EC), and of the OECD work on wood preservatives, the Environment Focus Group (EFG), comprising 8 institutes and the European Wood Preservative Manufacturers Group, has been working on the environmental risk assessment of treated timber in service. A literature review of emissions from treated timber has revealed that very little existing data is usable for environmental risk assessment; the most relevant data are kinetic curves of emissions over time, which show clearly the non-linear emissions behaviour of treated wood over time. The EFG has suggested real exposure conditions for treated timber in the environment, and listed typical exposure scenarios. Five representative scenarios are characterised in detail, for use in the calculation of Predicted Environmental Concentrations (PECs). The existing methods to determine emissions from treated wood have been reviewed. Most existing experimental models cannot be used to predict environmental emissions. Monitoring of commodities in service has its specific constraints. Chemical analysis and ecotoxicity testing have also been reviewed and their relationship has been discussed. Principles for the design of experimental models, for the determination of emission fluxes from treated wood to the environment, have been established.

A constantly high humidity and a suitable of water holding capacity for a range of micro-organisms provide high decay rates in untreated wood and produce intensive microbial pressures on wood treated with biocides. Presently a range of biocides are under test in the BAM fungus cellar and the results will be presented for the following types of biocides: Tebuconazole in combination with copper and boron (5 years fungus cellar), quats with copper and boron (5 years fungus cellar) and Cu-organic compound combined with copper and boron (3 years fungus cellar). Figures will be shown on the development of the Modulus of Elasticity (MOE) over the years and on an assessment of the stakes according to EN 252.
