7 Protocol bij het Verdrag van 1979 betreffende grensoverschrijdende luchtverontreiniging over lange afstand inzake vermindering van verzuring, eutrofiëring en ozon op leefniveau
Parties other than Canada and the United States of America
Combustion plants with a rated thermal input exceeding 50 MWth:
1) The rated thermal input of the combustion plant is calculated as the sum of the input of all units connected to a common stack. Individual units below 15 MWth shall not be considered when calculating the total rated thermal input.

1) In particular, the ELVs shall not apply to:
– Plants in which the products of combustion are used for direct heating, drying, or any other treatment of objects or materials;
– Post-combustion plants designed to purify the waste gases by combustion which are not operated as independent combustion plants;
– Facilities for the regeneration of catalytic cracking catalysts;
– Facilities for the conversion of hydrogen sulphide into sulphur;
– Reactors used in the chemical industry;
– Coke battery furnaces;
– Cowpers;
– Recovery boilers within installations for the production of pulp;
– Waste incinerators; and
– Plants powered by diesel, petrol or gas engines or by combustion turbines, irrespective of the fuel used.
2) The O2 reference content is 6% for solid fuels and 3% for liquid and gaseous fuels.
Note: FBC = Fluidized bed combustion (circulating pressurized, bubbling).
