BAT is to reduce dust emissions from the waste gases of the melting furnace by means of an electrostatic precipitator or a bag filter system.

A description of the technique is given in Section 1.10.1.

BAT-AELs for dust emissions from the melting furnace in the frits sector

The conversion factors of 5 × 10–3 and 7,5 × 10–3 have been used for the determination of the lower and upper value of the BAT-AELs range (see Table 2). However, a case-by-case conversion factor may have to be applied based on the type of combustion.
