Division Applicability

United Kingdom

Only applicable for plants that:

incinerate hazardous waste with POP levels prior to incineration exceeding the concentration limits defined in Annex IV to Regulation (EC) No 850/2004 and amendments; and
do not meet the process description specifications of Chapter IV.G.2 point (g) of the UNEP technical guidelines UNEP/CHW.13/6/Add.1/Rev.1.

Notes on Division 1.2

Footnotes

f1: Generic EN standards for continuous measurements are EN 15267-1, EN 15267-2, EN 15267-3 and EN 14181. EN standards for periodic measurements are given in the table or in the footnotes.
f2: For periodic monitoring, the monitoring frequency does not apply where plant operation would be for the sole purpose of performing an emission measurement.
f3: If continuous monitoring of N₂O is applied, the generic EN standards for continuous measurements apply.
f4: The continuous measurement of HF may be replaced by periodic measurements with a minimum frequency of once every six months if the HCl emission levels are proven to be sufficiently stable. No EN standard is available for the periodic measurement of HF.
f5: For plants incinerating wastes with a proven low and stable mercury content (e.g. mono-streams of waste of a controlled composition), the continuous monitoring of emissions may be replaced by long-term sampling (no EN standard is available for long-term sampling of Hg) or periodic measurements with a minimum frequency of once every six months. In the latter case the relevant standard is EN 13211.
f6: The monitoring only applies to the incineration of waste containing brominated flame retardants or to plants using BAT 31(d) with continuous injection of bromine.
f7: The monitoring does not apply if the emission levels are proven to be sufficiently stable.
f8: The monitoring does not apply where the emissions of dioxin-like PCBs are proven to be less than 0,01 ng WHO-TEQ/Nm³.
