Revision of waste Treatment industries IED/BREF document - what are implications for MBT - Operators?

Indications on the approach for composting and digestion plants in Germany will be given.The European BREF documents (Best Available Technique Reference Documents) describe the Best AvailableTechniques (BAT) for low-emission operation of industrial plants which also include waste treatment plants. Thedefinition of the best available techniques in terms of the BREFs is similar to that of the German term state of the art.

The legal basis is the Industrial Emissions Directive 2010/75/EU (IED Directive) which replaced the IntegratedPollution Prevention and Control Directive of 15 January 2008 (IPPC Directive) with effect from 2010.With the adoption of the IED Directive, the BREF Documents have been gaining increased legal weight. They must beobserved in setting permit conditions and constitute a major element of the permitting process. Due to the ongoingprogress in technology development, the BREF Documents must be reviewed for currency on a regular basis andrevised, if necessary. The review process for the BREF Document starts in 2012.In preparation of the revision process, documents describing the technical state of the art of German waste treatmentplants are currently being developed on behalf of the German Federal Environmental Agency. The project includes datacollection from various types of organic waste treatment plants including measurement of emissions in practice.The Waste Treatment Industries BREF comprises more than 600 pages. In order to have a manageable documentstakeholder proposed a sub-division into the Mini-BREFs with one for biological treatment. The German approachproposes a clear differentiation between residual waste treatment on the one hand and composting and anaerobicdigestion of source-separated waste streams on the other and also to account for the different requirements for therespective plants, two separate Technical Documents have been prepared:As results the following statements were made with regard to BAT:
• Engineering measures for emission reduction
• Definition of MBT technologies that are considered to be BAT
• General minimization requirement for consumption figures
• Suitable techniques for waste water Treatment
• Suitable techniques for exhaust gas treatment
Moreover, if was possible to indicate at least examples of potential emission ranges of the MBT technologies.The work on the Draft Technical Document prepared by Wasteconsult international in cooperation with the workinggroup is completed. Comprising 55 pages plus an annex,This paper describes the updating process of the BREF document focusing on the German contribution to themechanical-biological treatment technology area. The work for composting and anaerobic digestion plants for biowaste is under progress so only an outlook can be given.
