The Directive on industrial emissions 2010/75/EU (IED) was adopted on 24 November 2010 and published in the Official Journal on 17 December 2010 Directive on industrial emissions 2010/75/EU (IED) It entered into force on 6 January 2011 and has to be transposed into national legislation by Member States by 7 January The IED replaces the IPPC Directive and the sectoral directives………… EU-Directive on integrated pollution prevention and control - IPPC-Directive / Directive on indiustrial emissions 2010/75/EU

Target: integrated prevention and reduction of emissions in air, soil and water  in order to achieve a high level of protection for the environment in total = cross media approach Requirements for permission and operation of facilities  public permission process  Prevention by implementation of “best available techniques“ (BAT)  EU-uniform Definition of the BAT necessary (  BREF „Intensive Livestock Farming 2003) Affected: Installations for the intensive rearing of poultry and pigs  poultry places, fattening pig places (> 30 kg), 750 Sow places To be proved:  - by 2011: Differentiating poultry categories, „mixed livestock enterprises“ - by 2012: Involvem. of intensive cattle rearing, application of manures EU-Directive on integrated pollution prevention and control - IPPC-Directive / Directive on indiustrial emissions 2010/75/EU

Preconditions for Operation of Livestock Installations Permission (public permitting process) is needed for –operation, –substantial change in operation and extension of intensive livestock installations Basic obligations for operation –to prevent pollution  application of ´Best Available Techniques´ (BAT) –to prevent accidents and limit their consequences –not to cause significant pollution –to prevent or minimise waste production –to reuse waste –to use energy efficiently

Criteria for the Determination of ‘Best Available Technology (BAT)´ Best techniques –low emissions to –air  NH3, odour, N2O, CH4, dust, noise,... –soil and water  no leakage, leakage control, tight construction –efficient use of –energy  for ventilation, heating, technical equipment and –raw materials  feeding stuff, bedding materials, cleaning and drinking water –amount and quality of manure and waste –animal welfare Available techniques –technical and economical application possible Techniques –design, construction, maintenance and operation  'management’ or ‘good agricultural practise’

to be expected ….. Introduction Air Pollution control regulations and agreements at EU and UN level EU Regulations on the Integrated environmental protection Further development of the air pollution control regulations Summary and outlook

Summary and Outlook The international agreements and European directives for air pollution control and for integrated environmental protection will in future further raise the environmental protection standards in farm animal production… ….whereby the aspects of the animal protection, animal welfare and work safety will have to be increasingly taken account of. In this respect ammonia occupies a key position because it not only causes direct eutrophication and acidification in the environment but also has an indirect effect through secondary aerosol formation to fine dust pollution. Greenhouse gases will be playing an significant role, mitigation options however are limited Therefore before 2020 there will be further emission reduction requirements for ammonia and fine dust (PM2.5). Within the framework of agricultural and environment policies (BAT Process, NEC Directive, climate protection) the international standardisation of verification procedures for the certification of environmentally friendly technologies in the livestock sector will have great importance in their development and application.
