Daily Incinerator Statistics
In
accordance with legal notice 14 of 2013 Waste Management (Incineration)
Regulations (transposing EU Directive 2000/76/EC on incineration) the operator
is required to carry out the following continuous measurements of air
pollutants:
-
Nitrogen Oxides (NOx)
- Carbon Monoxide (CO)
- Total Dust
- Hydrogen Chloride (HCl)
- Sulphur Dioxide (SO2)
- Total Hydrocarbon (THC)
- Hydrogen Fluoride (HF)
- Ammonia (NH3)
The daily
average air emission limit values in the regulations are reproduced in Table 1.
