Division 1.10 BAT conclusions for the coating and printing of metal packaging
United Kingdom
The emission levels for the coating and printing of metal packaging given below are associated with the general BAT conclusions given in Section 1.1.
Table 22
BAT-associated emission level (BAT-AEL) for total emissions of VOCs from the coating and printing of metal packaging
| Parameter | Unit | BAT-AEL(Yearly average) |
|---|---|---|
| Total VOC emissions as calculated by the solvent mass balance | g VOCs per m2 of coated/printed surface | < 1–3,5 |
The associated monitoring is given in BAT 10.
As an alternative to the BAT-AEL in Table 22, the BAT-AELs in both Table 23 and Table 24 may be used.
Table 23
BAT-associated emission level (BAT-AEL) for fugitive emissions of VOCs from the coating and printing of metal packaging
| Parameter | Unit | BAT-AEL(Yearly average) |
|---|---|---|
| Fugitive VOC emissions as calculated by the solvent mass balance | Percentage (%) of the solvent input | < 1–12 |
The associated monitoring is given in BAT 10.
Table 24
BAT-associated emission level (BAT-AEL) for VOC emissions in waste gases from the coating and printing of metal packaging
| For plants using BAT 16 (c) in combination with an off-gas treatment technique, an additional BAT-AEL of less than 50 mg C/Nm3 applies to the waste gas of the concentrator. | ||
| Parameter | Unit | BAT-AEL(Daily average or average over the sampling period) |
|---|---|---|
| TVOC | mg C/Nm3 | 1–20f1 |
The associated monitoring is given in BAT 11.
