Legend:
1) In co-firing for energy production apply "aggregation rule" => C= sum(Cfuel*Hfuel/Hplant); where C is emission limit, Cfuel is based on total thermal input of plant, and H is thermal input.
2) Emission limit for waste (Cwaste ).
(V *Cwaste +Vprocess *Cprocess )/(V waste +Vprocess ); where V=gas volume and C=emission limit value.
3) In co-firing for energy production apply "aggregation rule" as in (1); in co-incineration apply "mixing rule" => C=waste
3
4) 30' averages can be exceeded temporarely up to 150 mg/mn.
3
5) Exemption can be granted to FBC technology, but not exceeding 100 mg/mn on hour average.
3
6) for existing (co-)incineration plant smaller than 6 tons/h the limit is 400 mg/m
n
7) summatory of all compunds (inlcuding gaseous) expressed as elements; average over sampling period between 30' and 8 hours
8) other HMs = summatory of Sb + As + Pb + Cr + Co + Cu + Mn + Ni + V
9) Total dioxins and furans calculated from each component molecule, weighed by propose toxic equivalent factors. Average over sampling period between 6 and 8 hours
