BAT Wastewater Directive Industry
The so-called “BAT Wastewater Directive for Industry” is not a separate directive, but refers to the application of Best Available Techniques (BAT) to industrial wastewater treatment.
It is based on the European Industrial Emissions Directive (IED) – Directive 2010/75/EU – and is specified in more detail in sector-specific BAT reference documents (BREFs) and BAT conclusions. These documents contain binding emission ranges and serve as the basis for national limit values. Affected industries such as metal processing, chemicals, automotive, and food production must adapt their wastewater treatment to this state of the art in order to meet legal requirements and environmental targets. We offer industry-specific solutions for this purpose, e.g., evaporators, ultrafiltration, and foreign oil separators to reduce emission values and recycle water in the production process.
