The NFM BREF – Best Available Techniques (BAT) Reference Document for the Nonferrous Metals Industries is an excellent source of information regarding • Existing companies, sites and production techniques • Existing emissions • Techniques for environmental protection • etc.

The BAT Conclusions • include best available techniques and associated emission levels • are translated into all official EU languages and • are legally binding after publication in the EU Official journal • have to be implemented at existing installations within 4 years 29
