When SO₃ is used for surface treatment operations, BAT is to reduce SO_X emissions by using one or a combination of the following techniques:

A description of the techniques is given in Section 1.10.6.
Technique^f1	Applicability
(i) Minimising the product losses by ensuring a good sealing of the application system A good construction and maintenance of the application system is essential for minimising the losses of unreacted product into the air	The techniques are generally applicable
(ii) Applying a secondary technique, e.g. wet scrubbing
