# Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2015/2119 of 20 November 2015 establishing best available techniques (BAT) conclusions, under Directive 2010/75/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council, for the production of wood-based panels (notified under document C(2015) 8062) (Text with EEA relevance), Division BAT 25: In order to reduce emissions to water from surface run-off water, BAT is to use a combination of the techniques given below.

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

Descriptions of the techniques are given in Section 1.4.2.
Technique
Applicability

Generally applicable
b
Oil-water separation
Generally applicable
c
Removal of solids by sedimentation in retention basins or settlement tanks
There may be restrictions to the applicability of sedimentation due to space requirements
