The Commission implementing decision on Best Available Techniques (BAT) conclusions for the non-ferrous metals industries has now been published. BAT conclusions are the technical basis for competent authorities in EU countries to set permit conditions for the installations concerned, as stipulated by the Industrial Emissions Directive. BAT conclusions aim to achieve a high level of protection of the environment under economically and technically viable conditions. Non-ferrous metals and their alloy play a centre role in our society, particularly in the sectors of energy generation, computing, electronic, telecommunication and transport industries.
