Pollution Control Directed Legislation (IPC, IPPC, IED BAT & BREF)
The Environment can sustain a certain limit of pollution before damage occurs
Best Approach = Legislate to CONTROL manner, time and rate pollutants enter the environment
EPA:Central Role in roll out of licenses for Pollution Control Approach
Industrial Emissions Directive (IED) (2010/75/EU)(
http://ec.europa.eu/environment/industry/stationary/ied/legislation.htm
)
BREF-BAT Guidance [Link Title]
http://ec.europa.eu/environment/industry/stationary/ied/legislation.htm
)
Industrial Emissions Directive (IED)
Control-Engineering Approach= Best Available Technology to minimise waste emissions
IPC, IPPC, IED BAT & BREF
Pollution control approach
Co ordination among areas such as industrial development, city planning, water resources development and transportation policies, etc.
All aspects of pollution covered - air ,water, land energy use and resource depletion
Aim - Promote better quality of life by reducing pollution to the lowest level possible
Historical Pollution treatment
End of pipe abatement tecnologies
Risk of transferring pollution from one medium to another
From Ind Revolution to end of 20th centrury
IPPC
License
Single integrated licence - covers all facility emissions
Also has aim to prevent and reduce these emissions
13 classes of activity that require licence
1992 First Schedule
1 Minerals and Other Materials
2 Energy
3 Metals
4 Mineral Fibres and Glass
5 Chemicals Production of Inorganic, organic, polymers, pharma, paints, varnishes, pesticides, vetinary products etc.
6 Intensive Agriculture
7 Food and Drink
8 Wood, Paper, Textiles and Leather
9 Fossil Fuels
10 Cement, Lime and Magnesium Oxide
11 Waste
12 Surface Coatings
13 Other Activities
EPA is license authority

Industrial Emissions Directive (IED) - 2010/75/EU
Came to Ireland 2014
BAT
Europe wide agreement
Criteria
• the use of low-waste technology
• the use of less hazardous substances
• the furthering of recovery and recycling of substances generated and used in the process and of waste, where appropriate
• comparable processes, facilities or methods of operation which have been tried with success on an industrial scale
• technological advances and changes in scientific knowledge and understanding
• the nature, effects and volume of the emissions concerned
• the commissioning dates for new or existing installations
• the length of time needed to introduce the technique
• the consumption and nature of raw materials (including water) used in the process and energy efficiency
• the need to prevent or reduce to a minimum the overall impact of the emissions on the environment and the risks to it
• the need to prevent accidents and to minimise the consequences for the environment
• information published by public international organisations
BREF
Ref document for BAT
Exchange of information within specified inductries
Information from BREF
• Types of industry in the sector.
• Applied processes and techniques.
– Prevention and minimising
– Management and treatment of waste streams
• Current emissions and consumption levels.
• Techniques to consider in the determination of BAT
• Best Available Techniques.
• What are the capacities and consumptions of these industries
• ELV’s are also set in the BREF
• Methods of monitoring are set.
Industrial Emissions Directive
Replaces 7 existing directives
List
• The Large Combustion Plant Directive (LCPD)
•
The Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control Directive (IPPC
)
• The Waste Incineration Directive (WID
)
•
The Solvent Emissions Directive (SED)
• Three existing directives on titanium dioxide.
