# 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 98

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

In order to reduce emissions of organic compounds to air from the raw material drying and smelting process in secondary lead and/or tin production, BAT is to use one or a combination of the techniques given below.
Descriptions of the techniques are given in Section 1.10.
Technique
Applicability
a
Select and feed the raw materials according to the furnace and the abatement techniques used
Generally applicable
b
Optimise combustion conditions to reduce the emissions of organic compounds
Generally applicable
c
Afterburner or regenerative thermal oxidiser
The applicability is restricted by the energy content of the off-gases that need to be treated, as off-gases with a lower energy content lead to a higher use of fuels
BAT-associated emission levels: See Table 26.
Table 26
BAT-associated emission levels for TVOC emissions to air from the raw material drying and smelting process in secondary lead and/or tin production
As a daily average or as an average over the sampling period.
Parameter
BAT-AEL (mg/Nm3)
TVOC
10-40
