Important to know • BATAEL is not ELV • Lot of split view • Interface IPPC and LCPD
BAT for the combustion of coal and lignite • Unloading, storage and handling • Thermal efficiency • Dust emissions and heavy metals • SO2 emissions • NOx emissions • HF and HCl emissions • NH3 emissions • Water contamination • Waste and residues
Unloading, storage and handling of fuel and additives • Reduce fugitive dust emissions of coal and lignite by: • Effective loading/unloading equipment and closed transport systems • Covered stockpiles • Water or other surface spray systems • Cleaning roads • Maintenance
Reduce water emissions of stockpile by: Collecting and treatment of rainwater Reduce fugitive emissions of lime and limestone by: Enclosed storage and transport systems Reduce safety risk of NH3 for DeNOx by: Use of ammonia-water solution Unloading, storage and handling of fuel and additives
Reduction of CO2 by: Optimisation of energy utilisation Optimisation of generating process Cogeneration most effective option when local heat demand is high enough Thermal efficiency

FGD wet scrubbing reduction 92-98% or dry scrubbing 85-92% • split views on all levels FBC = fluidised bed combustion
NOx emission levels associated with BAT for coal combustion in mg/Nm3 (6 % O2) daily average
HF and HCl emissions • With a wet flue gas desulphurisation system reduction of HF and HCl emissions are 98 – 99%. • Emission levels HF 1 –5 mg/Nm3 and HCl 1 –10 mg/Nm3 • In practice leakages in the rotating gas-gas heat-exchanger. • BAT is a modern type of gas-gas heat-exchanger, more possibilities. • Replacement only when heat exchanger needs to be changed or replaced anyway.
NH3 emissions Ammonia slip when SNCR or SCR systems are installed. BAT is an emission of < 5 mg/Nm3
Water contamination • Rainwater from storage areas collected and treated • Waste water treatment plant with wet scrubbing • Remove heavy metals • Decrease amount of solid matter • In BREF more detailed information
Waste en residues • BAT is utilisation and re-use of combustion residues and by-products • Many utilisation possibilities for by-products as ashes with different criteria and plant specific • End-product gypsum of wet scrubbing is utilised in the plasterboard industry
Annex VII dust ELV in mg/Nm3 (6% O2 solid, 3% liquid and gas)
Compliance with the ELV laid down by LCPD should be regarded as a necessary but not sufficient condition for compliance with the requirements of IPPC regarding the use of BAT. Such compliance may involve more stringent ELV’s, ELV for other substances and other media and other appropriate conditions. NEC National emission ceilings LCPD Recital 8
