# Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2020/2009 of 22 June 2020 establishing the best available techniques (BAT) conclusions, under Directive 2010/75/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council on industrial emissions, for surface treatment using organic solvents including preservation of wood and wood products with chemicals (notified under document C(2020) 4050) (Text with EEA relevance), Division 1.12: BAT conclusions for flexography and non-publication rotogravure printing

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

The emission levels for flexography and non-publication rotogravure printing given below are associated with the general BAT conclusions given in Section 1.1.
Table 28
BAT-associated emission level (BAT-AEL) for total emissions of VOCs from flexography and non-publication rotogravure printing
Parameter
Unit
BAT-AEL(Yearly average)
Total VOC emissions as calculated by the solvent mass balance
kg VOCs per kg of solid mass input
< 0,1–0,3
The associated monitoring is given in BAT 10.
As an alternative to the BAT-AEL in Table 28, the BAT-AELs in both Table 29 and Table 30 may be used.
Table 29
BAT-associated emission level (BAT-AEL) for fugitive emissions of VOCs from flexography and non-publication rotogravure printing
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 30
BAT-associated emission level (BAT-AEL) for VOC emissions in waste gases from flexography and non-publication rotogravure printing
The upper end of the BAT-AEL range is 50 mg C/Nm3 if techniques are used which allow the reuse/recycling of the recovered solvent.
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.

The associated monitoring is given in BAT 11.
