Division BAT 96
United Kingdom
In order to reduce dust and metal emissions to air (other than those that are routed to the sulphuric acid or liquid SO2 plant) from charging, smelting and tapping in primary and secondary lead and/or tin production, BAT is to use a bag filter.
BAT-associated emission levels: See Table 24.
Table 24
BAT-associated emission levels for dust and lead emissions to air (other than those that are routed to the sulphuric acid or liquid SO2 plant) from charging, smelting and tapping in primary and secondary lead and/or tin production
| As a daily average or as an average over the sampling period. | |
| Dust emissions are expected to be towards the lower end of the range when emissions are above the following levels: 1 mg/Nm3 for copper, 0,05 mg/Nm3 for arsenic, 0,05 mg/Nm3 for cadmium. | |
| As an average over the sampling period. | |
| Parameter | BAT-AEL (mg/Nm3) |
|---|---|
| Dust | 2-4f1 f2 |
| Pb | ≤ 1f3 |
