For downstream dusty processes, BAT is to reduce emissions of dust and metals by using one or a combination of the following techniques:
| A description of the techniques is given in Section 1.10.8. | |
| Techniquef1 | Applicability |
|---|---|
| (i) Performing dusty operations (e.g. cutting, grinding, polishing) under liquid | The techniques are generally applicable |
| (ii) Applying a bag filter system | |
Table 36
BAT-AELs for air emissions from dusty downstream processes in the domestic glass sector, when treated separately
| The levels refer to the sum of metals present in the waste gas. | |
| The levels refer to downstream operations on lead crystal glass. | |
| Parameter | BAT-AEL |
|---|---|
| mg/Nm3 | |
| Dust | < 1 – 10 |
| Σ (As, Co, Ni, Cd, Se, CrVI)f2 | < 1 |
| Σ (As, Co, Ni, Cd, Se, CrVI, Sb, Pb, CrIII, Cu, Mn, V, Sn) | < 1 – 5 |
| Lead compounds, expressed as Pbf3 | < 1 – 1,5 |
