It is estimated that 50,000 large EU facilities are constantly indicating 40% of greenhouse gas emission, and 20% of all air and water pollution.
These pollutants have a significant impact on human health and the environment:
- The best particles (PM2,5) can enter our lungs and blood flow, causing diseases and death.
- Nox threatens human life and toothache.
- Socks, heavy metals and ammonia can harm crops, animals and humans.
- Greenhouse gases cause climate change and reduce the quality of the air.
Strong descent from emitter
The pollution caused by industrial emissions is the billions of euros and hundreds of thousands of premature deaths in the EU every year.
However, according to the European Environmental Organization, the European industry’s environmental and health costs have been reduced to 2021 by 2012. According to AEMA, the European Union Energy Department is due to 80% of the total decrease.
According to the same study, it is mainly due to the acceptance of new techniques and the renewable energy and low pollution fuels, which are the changes caused by EU performance.
New European standards
The European Union has recently reviewed its order on Industrial Emission (IET 2.0), which is a key tool for operating the largest industries and agricultural farms on the continent.
Due to this order, it is necessary to meet the environmental results associated with the best techniques available in its field (MDT). More and more governments in the world who want to follow the same approach.
These measures are determined during the “Seville process”, which is a model of the Joint Administration of the European Union member states and the civil society, and is held at the CCI of Seville.
Currently, about 80% of industrial facilities meet high -permitted emission range values. With the IED 2.0 directive, the skilled authorities of the member states must use the rigorous values when reviewing or installing the permissions.
The best techniques available must be taken into account more obviously the protection of human health and the climate of facilities.
Deicarbanization efforts
The new standards seek to achieve an additional reduction of 40% of the major air pollution from here until 2050. One of the objectives to ensure the course of the recent decades is: the EU industry has grown when its impact on the environment has been reduced, which is a process called “disconnection”.
Another important aspect of a reviewed order is the support and investment of investments for promoting Europe’s environmental competition based on a recent cleaning business agreement provided by the European Commission.
In Seville, a new innovation center for industrial transformation and emissions (insight) has been created to identify and classify the most trusted technologies to achieve circular economy and carbon neutrality.
Las The objectives of the EU They reach carbon neutrality and zero pollution by 2050. A new portal allows you to follow the evolution of various pollutants in different parts of Europe.
The European Environmental Institute It considers that the European Union has completed or advanced in the use of 33 activities announced in the “zero pollution program of 2021, but more efforts are still necessary to achieve objectives.
