  1. Industrial Emissions Directive (IED) 2010/75/EU Update on BREFs state of play Artemis Gryllia 27 October 2016

  2. Overview • IED and role of BAT conclusions • The information exchange process • BREFs and BAT conclusions published

  3. IED is the main EU instrument regulating pollutant emissions from agro - industrial installations • Covers around 50,000 installations which are required to operate in accordance with permits issued by MS competent authorities. • Permit conditions are to include: • emission limit values (ELVs) for all relevant pollutants - Annex II • ELVs based on the use of the Best Available Techniques (BAT)

  4. Role of BAT conclusions in permitting a) BAT conclusions are the reference for setting permit conditions BREF b) Within 4 years, permits should contain emission limit values (ELVs) for polluting substances (Annex II) c) Topics (depends on sector) covered among others : • Water use / reuse • Waste water management • Emissions to soil and groundwater PERMIT

  5. Information exchange to draw up, review & update BREFs for every sector Continues the ‘Sevilla process’ as existed under IPPC To address in particular: environmental performance of installations (emissions, consumption and nature of raw materials, water consumption, use of energy and generation of waste) techniques used, associated monitoring, cross-media effects, economic and technical viability to identify BAT and emerging techniques based on (a) and (b). BAT is a dynamic concept - so frequent updating (aim for an 8-year cycle)

  6. 2.3 BAT conclusions – to date Commission Implementing Decisions published in Official Journal: • GLS: manufacture of glass (2012/134/EU) • IS: iron and steel production (2012/135/EU) • TAN: tanning of hides and skins (2013/84/EU) • CLM: production of cement, lime & magnesium oxide (2013/163/EU) • CAK: production of chlor-alkali (2013/732/EU) • PP: production of pulp, paper & board (2014/687/EU) • REF: refining of mineral oil & gas (2014/738/EUplus 2014/768/EU) • CWW: Common waste water and Waste Gas Treatment (2016/902/EU) • WBP : Wood-based Panels production (2015/2119/EU) • NFM : Non-Ferrous Metals Industries (2016/1032/EU) Forthcoming BREFs / BAT conclusions: • IRPP (Intensive Rearing of Poultry or Pigs) • LCP (Large Combustion Plants) Ongoing 5 BREF reviews: Food Drink and Milk (FDM), Large Volume Organic Chemicals (LVOC), Surface treatment using organic solvents (STS), Waste Incineration (WI) and waste Treatment (WT)
