Division 12.1 Energy efficiency
United Kingdom
General techniques to increase energy efficiency are given in Section 1.3 of these BAT conclusions. Indicative environmental performance levels are presented in the table below.
Table 25
Indicative environmental performance levels for specific energy consumption
| The amount of raw materials refers to gross tonnage. | ||
| The specific energy consumption level does not apply to the production of polyols. | ||
| Specific process | Unit | Specific energy consumption (yearly average) |
|---|---|---|
| Potato processing for the production of native starch only | MWh/tonne of raw materials f1 | 0,08-0,14 |
| Maize and/or wheat processing for the production of native starch in combination with modified and/or hydrolysed starch | 0,65-1,25 f2 | |
