# Commission Implementing Decision of 26 September 2014 establishing the best available techniques (BAT) conclusions, under Directive 2010/75/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council, for the production of pulp, paper and board (notified under document C(2014) 6750) (Text with EEA relevance) (2014/687/EU), Division: SCOPE

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

These BAT conclusions concern the activities specified in Sections 6.1.(a) and 6.1.(b) of Annex I to Directive 2010/75/EU, i.e. the integrated and non-integrated production in industrial installations of:
(a) pulp from timber or other fibrous materials;
(b) paper or cardboard with a production capacity exceeding 20 tonnes per day.
In particular, these BAT conclusions cover the following processes and activities:
(i) chemical pulping:
(a) kraft (sulphate) pulping process
(b) sulphite pulping process
(ii) mechanical and chemimechanical pulping
(iii) processing paper for recycling with and without deinking
(iv) papermaking and related processes
(v) all recovery boilers and lime kilns operated in pulp and paper mills
These BAT conclusions do not address the following activities:
(i) production of pulp from non-wood fibrous raw material (e.g. yearly plant pulp);
(ii) stationary internal combustion engines;
(iii) combustion plants for steam and power generation other than recovery boilers;
(iv) dryers with internal burners for paper machines and coaters.
