# Commission Implementing Decision of 28 February 2012 establishing the best available techniques (BAT) conclusions under Directive 2010/75/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council on industrial emissions for the manufacture of glass (notified under document C(2012) 865) (Text with EEA relevance) (2012/134/EU), Division 9

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

BAT is to limit carbon monoxide (CO) emissions from the melting furnace, when applying primary techniques or chemical reduction by fuel, for the reduction of NOX emissions
Technique
Applicability
Primary techniques for the reduction of NOX emissions are based on combustion modifications (e.g. reduction of air/fuel ratio, staged combustion low-NOX burners, etc.). Chemical reduction by fuel consists of the addition of hydrocarbon fuel to the waste gas stream to reduce the NOX formed in the furnace.
The increase in CO emissions due to the application of these techniques can be limited by a careful control of the operational parameters
Applicable to conventional air/fuel fired furnaces.
