BAT is to control SOX emissions from the melting furnace by using one or a combination of the following techniques:
| A description of the techniques is given in Section 1.10.3. | |
| Techniquef1 | Applicability |
|---|---|
| (i) Selection of raw materials for the batch formulation with a low content of sulphur | The technique is generally applicable within the constraints of the availability of raw materials |
| (ii) Dry or semi-dry scrubbing, in combination with a filtration system | The technique is generally applicable |
| (iii) Use of low sulphur content fuels | The applicability may be limited by the constraints associated with the availability of low sulphur fuels, which may be impacted by the energy policy of the Member State |

BAT-AELs for SOX emissions from the melting furnace in the frits sector
| The conversion factors of 5 × 10–3 and 7,5 × 10–3 have been used; however, the values indicated in the table may have been approximated. A case-by-case conversion factor may have to be applied based on the type of combustion (see Table 2). | ||
| Parameter | BAT-AEL | |
|---|---|---|
| mg/Nm3 | kg/tonne melted glassf2 | |
| SOX, expressed as SO2 | < 50 – 200 | < 0,25 – 1,5 |

The conversion factors of 5 × 10–3 and 7,5 × 10–3 have been used; however, the values indicated in the table may have been approximated. A case-by-case conversion factor may have to be applied based on the type of combustion (see Table 2).
