Incinerator operators are heavily incentivised to prove the calculation of the fraction of biogenic CO2 emissions. There is currently a transition from fossil-based materials to products based on renewable materials. This transition has led to a need to control the...
The new SM-5 is the next generation of mercury CEMS analysers. The SM-5 mercury CEMS analyser meets the Waste Incineration BREF requirements, making it ideal for plants that must have a mercury CEMS analyser installed. The SM-5 was designed for hazardous waste...
Environmental regulations and standards are regularly updated to meet new climate change targets. Waste Incineration (WI) and Large Combustion Plant (LCP) daily Emission Limit Values (ELVs) are reducing under BREF. The Large Combustion Plant BAT Conclusions were...
The Environment Agency (EA) requests EfW plant operators to report Pollution Inventory (PI) emissions which now includes biogenic CO2 sources. The EA is keen to improve the quality of data on greenhouse gas emissions within the EfW sector. Environment Agency’s...
The principle of a linearity test is to check that the gas analyser system is ‘linear’. The linearity shall be calculated and tested using the procedure given in annex B of the standard EN14181. Linearity tests can be performed by Service Engineer, Site Engineer or...
By monitoring and optimising the gas abatement process in Energy from Waste plants, operators can achieve two things. Firstly, compliance with the new Emission Limit Values (ELVs) in the revised site permits, derived from the Industrial Emissions Directive 2010/75/....
We're back exhibiting after a 2 year absence! Following the repeated postponements, it's great to be going full steam ahead and planning for the RWM show at the end of September. Over the past 18-24 months, there have been a lot of changes to emissions monitoring in...
For too long, you've been watching your waste steam vanish into thin air - and with it goes the opportunity to generate additional revenues of up to £168,000 per year! Harvest Waste Steam and Turn It into Electricity Electricity Generation Generate 1,400,000...
Before construction of an Energy from Waste (EfW) plant, a power plant or biomass gasification plant can be signed over to the site operator, it's the responsibility of the EPC (Engineering, Procurement, Construction) to procure and install Continuous Emissions...
European Gastec Distributors Wanted Does your company currently sell gas detection equipment to industrial markets in Europe? Are you looking for a new business opportunity? a1-cbiss are currently looking for distributors across Europe who are looking to sell Gastec...
We explore the Energy from Waste solution to the UK's growing waste problem as well as the future of power generation to satisfy the UK's demands. Are We Facing an Energy Crisis? The majority of the UK’s electricity comes from coal-fired power plants however, many are...
EN 1948-5 has been approved in May 2015 sparking an increasing demand for continuous dioxin sampling across Europe. Now that the EN standard has been approved, the revision of the Best Available Technique (BAT) reference document for waste incinerators is expected to...
Can You Ignore the Dangers of Peracetic Acid? The American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) Board of Directors has approved the new 2014 occupational exposure limits, including a new Short Term Exposure Limit (STEL) for Peracetic Acid (PAA)....
