In December 2022, the EU published the best available techniques reference document (BREF) for Common Waste Gas Management and Treatment Systems in the Chemical Sector (WGC). From publication, a 4-year deadline was set for operators to comply. In 2023, operators were required to submit a “permit reconsideration dossier”, including a BAT compliance check, baseline soil report, and review of the 36 BAT conclusions (both general and sector-specific).

Researchers across Europe are taking to the skies to learn more about the impact of wildfires on air quality. As part of a three-year initiative, the European Biomass Burning Project (EUBURN), led by the Centre National de Recherches Météorologiques (Météo-France / CNRS), is conducting airborne research missions. These missions use aircraft equipped with scientific instruments to study fires and their associated smokes complemented by ground-based MiniMPL lidar measurements to provide smoke concentrations, properties and layer height information.

Natural gas is vital to the energy transition and a more sustainable future. However, without accurate mercury monitoring, corrosion risks can jeopardize production, safety, and the environment.

At ENVEA, we’re constantly developing new solutions for monitoring air quality and emissions. The impact and spread of airborne microplastics is becoming more evident.

To minimize and prevent future harm, we are actively looking for ways to overcome this next environmental health challenge.

Whether your business is based in the UK, EU, US or Asia, changes to environmental rules and regulations are on the horizon for 2025.

From biogenic CO₂ and emissions trading, carbon capture and dioxin measuring to mercury monitoring, BREF revisions and methane mitigation. We take a closer look at some of the environmental regulatory changes global businesses can expect for 2025 and beyond.

Cement plants could be missing out on carbon credit revenue due to inaccurate biogenic CO₂ data. Learn how ENVEA’s AMESA-B safeguards data integrity through leak detection and saturation control.

As European climate policies evolve, the differentiation between fossil and biogenic CO₂ emissions is becoming increasingly important. Especially as sectors like waste-to-energy prepare to comply with new emissions trading regulations. To shed light on why precise biogenic CO₂ measurement is not only a compliance requirement but also a financial opportunity, we spoke with ENVEA Global’s in-house expert Jürgen Reinmann, our Director of Regulatory. Reinmann is a respected authority with over 20 years of experience in long-term sampling micropollutants.

With coal undergoing a gradual phaseout as a power feedstock in Europe and the UK, attention is now shifting to the emissions footprint of the sources of power generation seeking to replace it.

Why WtE sites are relying on CO₂ measurements to meet standards.

Understanding and, most importantly, accurately measuring your business’s Biogenic CO₂ emissions can offer many business opportunities.

Though it occurs naturally, mercury remains a persistent and insidious threat to the environment and our health. Once released into the environment through industrial processes, it can travel tremendous distances for thousands of years. In fact, the WHO has now classified mercury as one of the ten chemicals of major public health concern. 

In an era of heightened environmental accountability, the waste-to-energy industry is under increasing pressure to reduce its carbon footprint and align with global sustainability goals. One area that often goes overlooked, but plays an increasingly important role in both climate strategy and business operations, is the measurement of biogenic CO₂.
