BAT is to carry out monitoring and measurements of process parameters and emissions on a regular basis and to monitor emissions in accordance with the relevant EN standards or, if EN standards are not available, ISO, national or other international standards that ensure the provision of data of an equivalent scientific quality, including the following:

TechniqueApplicability
aContinuous measurements of process parameters demonstrating the process stability, such as temperature, O2 content, pressure, flow rate and CO emissionsApplicable to kiln processes
bMonitoring and stabilising of critical process parameters, e.g. fuel feed, regular dosage and excess oxygen
cContinuous or periodic measurements of dust, NOx, SOx, CO emissions and NH3 emissions when SNCR is appliedApplicable to kiln processes
dContinuous or periodic measurements of HCl and HF emissions in case wastes are co-incineratedApplicable to kiln processes
eContinuous or periodic measurements of TOC emissions or continuous measurements in case wastes are co-incineratedApplicable to kiln processes
fPeriodic measurements of PCDD/F and metal emissionsApplicable to kiln processes
gContinuous or periodic measurements of dust emissions

Applicable to non-kiln processes

For small sources (<10 000 Nm3/h) the frequency of the measurements should be based on a maintenance management system
