00925njm 22002777a 4500 dc Giner Santonja, Germán author Vázquez Calvo, Víctor author Rodríguez Lepe, Gloria author 2019-04 After the adoption of the Industrial Emissions Directive in the European Union, requirements regarding emission limit values were made legally binding, and the competent authorities shall ensure that they do not exceed the emission levels associated with the best available techniques. This paper describes a two-stage method for the determination of best available techniques (BAT) and emission limit values (ELV) at installation level, applicable to all industrial sectors covered by the IED and to all pollutants to air and to water. This new method may support competent authorities to implement BAT conclusions into the IED permits. The determination of BAT is based on the use of analytical hierarchy process, while the ELV is determined by using corrective factors based on consumption and emission indicators from the installation. The method is applied in a case study on four existing cement installations in the region of Andalucia (Spain). 0048-9697 http://hdl.handle.net/10259/5590 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2018.12.473 Emission levels associated with the best available techniques (BAT-AEL) Best available techniques (BAT) Analytic hierarchy process (AHP) Emission limit value (ELV) Application of AHP and corrective factors for the determination of best available techniques and emission limit values at installation level: A case study in four cement installations
