# Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/1032 of 13 June 2016 establishing best available techniques (BAT) conclusions, under Directive 2010/75/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council, for the non-ferrous metals industries (notified under document C(2016) 3563) (Text with EEA relevance), Division BAT 97

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

In order to reduce dust and metal emissions to air from remelting, refining and casting in primary and secondary lead and/or tin production, BAT is to use the techniques given below.
Technique
a
For pyrometallurgical processes: maintain the temperature of the melt bath at the lowest possible level according to the process stage in combination with a bag filter
b
For hydrometallurgical processes: use a wet scrubber
BAT-associated emission levels: See Table 25.
Table 25
BAT-associated emission levels for dust and lead emissions to air from remelting, refining and casting 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, 1 mg/Nm3 for antimony, 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
2-4
Pb
≤ 1
