Inalazione: L’inalazione di polveri aeree può causare irritazione meccanica delle vie respiratorie superiori.
Contatto con gli occhi: L’esposizone alle polveri di questo prodotto può causare secchezza e irritazione meccanica degli occhi.
Contatto con la pelle: Il contatto con la pelle con le polveri di questo prodotto può causare secchezza e irritazione meccanica della pelle e delle membrane mucose.
Ingestione: L’ingestione di questo materiale non è prevista.Tuttavia, se ingerito in grandi quantità, il materiale può produrre irritazione meccanica e blocco renale.
Gravi pericoli per la salute: Le polveri di questo prodotto sono irritanti fisici e possono causare irritazione o prurito temporaneo della gola e/o prurito e arrossamento di occhi e pelle.
Pericolo generici : Il biossido di titanio è stato recentemente classificato dall’ International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) come un “ possibile cancerogeno per l’uomo “(Gruppo 2B). Vedi sezione 11 per ulteriori dettagli.
Alcuni studi sull’ esposizione prolungata alle polveri di silice amorfa indicano un potenziale per funzioni polmonari ridotte. In studi d’ indagine questo effetto è caratterizzato come connesso al fumo. Inoltre, studi d’ indagine definiscono le funzioni polmonari ridotte come effetto reversibile se l’esposizione è discontinua.

Source text - English Solar Power:
Solar cells (also known as photovoltaic cells, or PVs) that convert sunlight directly into electricity are one of the most revolutionary new energy technologies to be commercialized in recent decades. These devices are most often composed of crystalline silicon chips similar to those found in computers. They are adaptable to a remarkable range of uses, from handheld electronic devices to mountaintop weather stations, large desert power plants, and America’s rooftops. Solar cells can produce electricity almost anywhere—the solar resource in Maine, for example, is about 75 percent of that in Los Angeles. Annual global production of solar cells has increased six-fold since 2000, exceeding 1,700 MW in 2005, and the industry plans to continue its dramatic expansion. Global grid-connected PV capacity increased 55 percent in 2005, to 3.1 gigawatts, making it the world’s fastest growing source of power.
Concentrating Solar Technologies
Parabolic trough technologies track the sun with rows of mirrors that heat a fluid. The fluid then produces steam to drive a turbine.
Central receiver (tower) systems use large mirrors to direct the sun to a central tower, where fluid is heated to produce steam that drives a turbine. Parabolic trough and tower systems can provide largescale, bulk power with heat storage (in the form of molten salt, or in hybrid systems that derive a small share of their power from natural gas).
Dish systems consist of a reflecting parabolic dish mirror system that concentrates sunlight onto a small area, where a receiver is heated and drives a small thermal engine.
Concentrating photovoltaic systems (CPV) use moving lenses or mirrors to track the sun and focus its light on high-efficiency silicon or multi-junction solar cells; they are potentially a lower-cost approach to utility-scale PV power. Dish and CPV systems are well suited for decentralized generation that is located close to the site of demand, or can be installed in large groups for central station power.
Translation - Italian Energia Solare:
I pannelli solari, (noti anche come celle fotovoltaiche o PV) che trasformano i raggi solari direttamente in elettricità, rappresentano una delle tecnologie più rivoluzionarie che siano state commercializzate negli ultimi decenni. Questi dispositivi sono molto spesso composti da chip cristallini simili a quelli usati nei computer. Si prestano ad una vasta gamma d’ usi, che va da dispositivi elettronici di piccole dimensioni fino a stazioni metereologiche di alta montagna, centrali elettriche di grandi dimensioni nel deserto e persino i tetti delle casi americane. I pannelli solari sono in gradi di produrre energia elettrica praticamente ovunque – la risorsa solare nello stato del Maine, ad esempio è circa il 75% di quella di Los Angeles. Dal 2000, la produzione mondiale annuale di pannelli solari ha subito un aumento di sei volte, superando i 1.700MW nel 2005. Il settore sembra essere in continua espansione. La capacità delle celle fotovoltaiche in rete a livello globale è aumentata del 55% nel 2005, raggiungendo i 3.1 gigawatt, rendendola così la risorsa di energia con la più elevata crescita nel mondo.
Tecnologie a concentrazione solare
Le tecnologie che si servono di una parabola attirano i raggi del sole con linee di specchi che surriscaldano un fluido. Il fluido produce il vapore che andrà ad attivare una turbina.
Le centrali a torre fanno uso di ampi specchi per dirigere i raggi solari verso una torre centrale, dove il fluido si surriscalderà per produrre il vapore che attiverà la turbina. Le parabole e le centrali a torre sono in grado di fornire energia su ampia scala all’ ingrosso, con immagazzinaggio di calore (sotto forma di sale fuso), o in sistemi ibridi, che ricavano una piccola quantità della loro energia dal gas naturale).
I sistemi parabolici consistono di un riflettore parabolico che concentra i raggi solari verso una zona limitata, dove si surriscalda il ricevitore che attiva un piccolo motore termico.
Le tecnologie a concentrazione solare (CPV) fanno uso di lenti mobili o specchi che attirano i raggi e li incanalano su pannelli solari multigiunzione o con silicone ad alta efficienza; si tratta di una soluzione potenzialmente meno dispendiosa per ottenere energia solare su scala pubblica. I riflettori parabolici e i sistemi CPV sono estremamente adatti alla generazione decentralizzata che si trova nelle vicinanze del sito in questione o possono essere installati su ampia scala per centrali elettriche.
