# 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 iron and steel production (notified under document C(2012) 903) (Text with EEA relevance) (2012/135/EU), Division 64

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

BAT is to reduce dust emissions from the blast furnace gas by using one or a combination of the following techniques:
I.. using dry prededusting devices such as:
(i) deflectors
(ii) dust catchers
(iii) cyclones
(iv) electrostatic precipitators.
II.. subsequent dust abatement such as:
(i) hurdle-type scrubbers
(ii) venturi scrubbers
(iii) annular gap scrubbers
(iv) wet electrostatic precipitators
(v) disintegrators.
For cleaned blast furnace (BF) gas, the residual dust concentration associated with BAT is < 10 mg/Nm3, determined as the average over the sampling period (discontinuous measurement, spot samples for at least half an hour).
