Chapter 4 describing techniques to consider for the determination of BATs now finalised
The draft Chapter 4 of the Waste Treatment BREF has now been finalised by the JRC biological treatment group. You can download it HERE.
This document describes the techniques to consider for the determination of BATs for composting, AD and MBT, as well as more general techniques applicable to all biological treatment types (e.g. waste pre- acceptance and acceptance procedures). This version of the chapter will be now handed over to the JRC, although few issues are still open for discussion (e.g. bioaerosols, MBT section).
The chapter was drafted by a team led by Unico van Kooten [Dutch WMA], including:
⢠Arge Compost, Austria - Open air composting
⢠German Biogas Association - AD
⢠Veolia France â MBT
⢠Organics Recycling Group of REA - General techniques and indoor composting
The draft was agreed within a much wider group of stakeholders (the âÂÂJRC biological treatment groupâÂÂ) which includes representatives of Member States (environmental regulators in particular) as well as national and European waste management trade bodies.
All the comments made by REA's members on the draft were considered and the ORG has done its best to ensure they are all addressed. However please note that few comments were not accepted by the wider group, so they may not be reflected in the draft.
