Code of practice to reduce emissions of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) from the primary aluminium sector .: En14-241/2015E-PDF

This Code of Practice describes operational activities in the primary aluminium sector and concerns related to emissions of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) from these activities, including the production of aluminium from alumina using prebaked anode technology; prebaked anode production; green coke calcining and alumina production. It presents recommendations for the implementation of best practices to reduce emissions of PM2.5. These recommended practices can be used by the aluminium industry, regulatory agencies and the general public as sources of technical and policy guidance but they do not replace regulatory requirements.
