ELISEO MONFORTIRINA CELADESTICA SANFELIXALBERTO ESCRIGANA BENGOECHEA

KICK OFF MEETING-Barcelona, 29th of October 2013

ITC responsible for:

•B.5 Determination of the impact of industrial sources

•D.5 Production of Layman ’s report

2

B.5 Determination of the impact of industrial sources

3

Non channelled emissions: Diffusive or fugitive emissions that

are not emitted into the atmosphere through stacks or ducts

Channelled emissions from stationary sources

Cold emissions or emissions at ambient temperature

Hot emissions or combustion gases

1 Relevant concepts: Types of industrial emissions

4

1 Relevant concepts: Diffusive emissions

Where? Diffusive PM10/2.5 emission sources:

Extraction, transport, storage, and handling of particulate materials

5

Who? Industrial activities affected:

Cement, steel, ceramic, mining industries, harbours, …

1 Main concepts: Diffusive emissions

6

Directive 1996/61/CE. Integrated Prevention and Pollution Control

Directive 2010/75/EU on industrial emissions (integrated pollution prevention and control)

1 EU Legislation frame: Industrial emissions

BAT Reference Documents (BREF): Glass, ceramics, fo undries, steel production, cement, waste management, emissions monitoring, emi ssions from storage, food,

E-PRTR (European Pollutant Release and Transfer Register)

7

How are we going to manage ACTION B.5?

8

1. Definition: Area of study

2. Identification and classification of industrial activities

3. Study of activities: contribution of industrial sources to PM levels

4. Emissions inventory

5. Proposals of mitigation measures at industrial scale

B.5 STEPS

9

1. Definition: Area of study

Define the Area of interest for industrial activities contribution….

10

Identification of all industrial activities

Sources of information: Chambers of commerce, local authorities, business association, OTHERS?

Classification attending legislation: European or National

In the case of Spain there is a Catalogue of Industrial Activities called CAPCA (2010-2011), the nomenclature used for identify each activity is SNAP from CORINAIR.

2 Identification and classification of industrial activities

Do you AGREE to group all activities in each country following this nomenclature???

11

• Compile relevant information: industrial size (production), type of product, number of sources (stacks), type of fuel, ….

• Define the technological scenario (BAT implementation)

• Compile all information regarding pollutant PM10/PM2.5 emissions


HOW…?

12

SOURCES OF INFORMATION: existing data


Local Authorities Information: ENVIRONMENTAL PERMITS

Air Quality Plans

Existing inventories:

Scientific literature 13


Example of information from E-PRTR:

Diffusive PM emissions from industrial release

14

SOURCES OF INFORMATION: existing data


Local Authorities Information: ENVIRONMENTAL PERMITS

Air Quality Plans

Existing inventories:

Scientific literature

To complete information

15

EXAMPLES OF OTHER SOURCES OF INFORMATION (based on theorical data)


16

4. EMISSION INVENTORY

Emission data and BATs

Sensibility Analysis(compare real data vs theoretical)

Good agreement between Existing & calculated data?

Complete and improve information

AIRUSE INVENTORY

YES

NO

5. Proposals of mitigation measures at industrial scale

Air Quality PM levelAIRUSE INVENTORY +

Proposal of mitigation measures

BATs implementation ProgramBATs Control Program (maintenance, emission controls, …)

Propose more restrictive Emission Limit Values

PROGRAM TO MITIGATE INDUSTRIAL PM CONTRIBUTION IN THE CITIES STUDIED
