BAT-associated emission levels (BAT-AELs) for channelled dust emissions to air from upstream and downstream wood processing, conveying of wood materials and mat forming

When a bag filter or a cyclofilter is not applicable, the upper end of the range can be up to 10 mg/Nm3.
ParameterUnitBAT-AELs(average over the sampling period)
Dust mg/Nm3 < 3–5f1

The associated monitoring is in BAT 14.

  1. BAT 17In order to prevent or reduce emissions to air from the dryer, BAT is to achieve and manage a balanced operation of the drying process and to use one or a combination of the techniques given below.
  2. BAT 18In order to prevent or reduce NOX emissions to air from directly heated dryers, BAT is to use technique (a) or technique (a) in combination with technique (b).
  3. BAT 19In order to prevent or reduce emissions to air from the press, BAT is to use in-duct quenching of collected press waste gas and an appropriate combination of the techniques given below.
  4. BAT 20Division BAT 20
  5. Applicability
  6. BAT 21In order to reduce emissions of volatile organic compounds to air from the drying ovens for the impregnation of paper, BAT is to use one or a combination of the techniques given below.
