KOBiZE reporting support

Build the KOBiZE report on organised source information

We agree which facilities, installations and activities are covered and establish the reporting period. Fuel, material consumption, process and emission information is collected and compared with available records and technical data. Changes since the previous period are identified where they may require updated source descriptions or calculation bases, rather than simply copying an earlier submission.

Units, reference periods and connections between activity data and emission quantities are reconciled. We check completeness and document assumptions and calculation approaches. Questions requiring clarification are directed to the operator's relevant staff, so the report uses confirmed information wherever available and remaining uncertainties are not lost within the final compiled figures.

The prepared material is reviewed with the client before use in reporting. Support does not automatically authorise submission through the system; access and responsibility for such activities must be agreed separately. We also identify information worth collecting routinely so the next reporting cycle involves less reconstruction of records and fewer unexplained differences.

Air emission source inventory and emissions balance

Turning facility data into a traceable emissions balance

We identify sources associated with production, fuel combustion and other activities within the agreed boundary. Installation documentation is combined with operating records, available measurement results and input from process owners. Actual operating parameters, design values and assumptions are kept distinct so that calculations do not inadvertently mix incompatible bases.

For each source, we establish the relevant pollutants, units and reporting period. Emission quantities are compiled so their origin can be traced and related to installation activity. Checks address missing streams, inconsistent operating hours and potential double counting. Where information is incomplete, we describe the gap and explain how it affects the resulting balance.

The assessment identifies the contribution of different sources and the information worth improving before modelling, documentation or reporting. It does not replace measurements where these are needed to determine emissions. When fuel, capacity or operating arrangements change, the structured inventory helps identify the records requiring revision without rebuilding the entire source catalogue.

Technical data

Subject Emission sources, fuels, materials and processes within the agreed facility boundary.
Service type Source inventory and quantitative air emissions balance.
Assessment basis and requirements Technical documentation, operating data, available measurements and calculation methods selected for the sources and intended use.

Air pollutant dispersion modelling

Understand concentration patterns before selecting a design

We develop the model from source characteristics, emission quantities and the operating conditions of the facility. The study area, assessment points and environmental inputs are selected for the question being addressed. We check whether the available information represents the intended scenario and identify parameters requiring further evidence or a clearly stated assumption.

Calculations describe the spatial distribution of concentrations for the agreed pollutants and scenarios. Alternatives involving operating arrangements, source locations or emission parameters can be compared on a consistent basis. Results are interpreted against criteria relevant to the assessment purpose, highlighting sensitive locations, influential sources and the significance of input data for the conclusions.

A model is a forecasting tool, not a measurement of actual air quality at every location and moment. We explain scenario limitations and circumstances requiring additional evidence. This enables the designer or operator to decide whether to adjust the technical solution, investigate another alternative or incorporate the findings into broader environmental documentation.

Technical data

Subject Dispersion of agreed pollutants around identified emission sources.
Service type Computational modelling and comparison of emission scenarios.
Assessment basis and requirements Emission, source and environmental data; methods and assessment criteria selected for the location and documentation purpose.
Method
  1. Check the source inventory and representativeness of emission inputs.
  2. Prepare the model, assessment locations and agreed operating scenarios.
  3. Calculate concentration patterns and compare alternatives on a common basis.
  4. Interpret results, model limitations and requirements for further assessment.
Delivery model KFB Enviro

What you receive

You receive the model in an agreed form, results maps and an assessment report. The report explains inputs, scenarios, interpretation criteria and calculation limitations. Conclusions highlight differences between alternatives and issues requiring attention from the designer or operator, so the output supports a practical decision rather than simply presenting a collection of maps.

Air quality impact assessment

A coherent air quality assessment for project decisions

We first establish the project stage and type of document that require assessment. Processes, fuels, emission sources and relevant surroundings are reviewed. The scope reflects the development, distinguishing construction and operational effects where both stages are material to the question being considered and the agreed specialist contribution to the wider documentation.

We organise the evidence needed for conclusions: emission data, available measurements, modelling results and information on proposed controls. Assumptions are checked for consistency and alignment with the overall project description. If evidence is insufficient, we identify the necessary additions rather than presenting an unsupported judgement as a conclusive assessment of air quality effects.

Findings are translated into project considerations, emission control measures or questions requiring further investigation. The specialist report does not replace separate assessments or measurements identified as necessary during the review. Its purpose is to explain the assessment basis and support informed decisions without predetermining the outcome of an administrative procedure.

Technical data

Subject A development's effect on air quality in the relevant surrounding area.
Service type Specialist assessment for environmental, permitting or investment documentation.
Assessment basis and requirements Document requirements, project characteristics and assessment criteria confirmed for the individual assignment.
Method
  1. Define the document purpose, assessment boundary and relevant project stages.
  2. Review emissions, surrounding conditions and available investigation results.
  3. Connect the evidence to impact conclusions and proposed control measures.
  4. Prepare consistent specialist findings and identify necessary additional information.
Delivery model KFB Enviro with a partner/subcontractor

Air emissions measurements

Connect emission results with installation operating conditions

The measurement scope follows the installation's characteristics, emitted substances and documents defining its requirements. We review available sampling locations, access and the process information needed. Method and contractor selection considers the parameters and technical conditions at the site, identifying prerequisites for useful emission results before the measurement campaign begins rather than discovering them during testing.

The partner or subcontractor performs the agreed tests while KFB Enviro coordinates the scope and information exchange. Results are interpreted against documented operating states and appropriate comparison conditions. We check whether the report answers the emission question and identify factors affecting interpretation, rather than treating each value as independent of installation load and configuration.

A campaign describes the tested operating conditions and does not automatically establish emission levels under every other state. Process changes, unusual operation or measurement location constraints may require further testing. Detailed scope and delivery arrangements depend on the method; measuring an installation's emissions is distinct from assessing ambient air quality in its surrounding area.

Technical data

Subject Releases of substances to air from the installation under investigation.
Service type Partner-delivered emission measurements coordinated by KFB Enviro.
Assessment basis and requirements Process characteristics, emission requirement documents, test parameters and a method suited to the source and substances.
Method
  1. Define substances, sampling locations and required operating states.
  2. Check testing conditions and coordinate an appropriate measurement provider.
  3. Have the partner perform tests with process conditions documented.
  4. Review the report and assess results against relevant requirements.
Delivery model Partner/subcontractor coordinated by KFB Enviro

What you receive

Notification of an installation emitting to air

The right information for an installation notification

We begin by understanding the installation and reviewing the proposed documentation route. We establish which equipment and processes need to be described and what information the operator, developer or supplier should provide. For commissioning, project assumptions must be distinguished from confirmed data for installed equipment; for modifications, the extent of the documentation update also needs to be defined.

We organise the technology description, operating hours, materials used and information on emissions to air. Technical information and schedules are checked for consistency with each other and with intended use. Missing information needed for the notification is identified, and the documentation is structured so that equipment, processes and reported emission parameters can be clearly connected.

An installation notification is distinct from an emissions permit application. We do not assume that the notification route is appropriate simply from an equipment name. If the identified parameters indicate a need to reconsider the procedure, we explain this before finalising the material. The resulting documentation reflects the agreed installation scope and explicitly understood assumptions.

Technical data

Subject An air-emitting installation covered by the notification procedure
Service type Installation notification with technical and emissions data
Assessment basis and requirements Installation characteristics, equipment and process data, and the information scope applicable to the identified notification procedure.
Method
  1. Review the installation and the proposed documentation route.
  2. Collect equipment, material and planned operating-time information.
  3. Organise emissions data and clarify missing parameters.
  4. Prepare the notification and check consistency across its components.
Delivery model KFB Enviro with a partner/subcontractor

Air emissions permit application support

From process information to emissions documentation

We identify processes and emission sources within the application boundary and their relationships. We collect information on materials, fuels, equipment, exhaust arrangements and operating hours. For modifications, existing documentation is compared with the proposed solution. Supplier information and previous measurement results are reviewed for their relevance to the operating arrangements being assessed rather than transferred without context.

This evidence supports emission calculations and the analyses needed for the application. Assumptions and methods are selected with regard to the process and available information. We check consistency between emission quantities, release-point characteristics and operating scenarios, identifying material data gaps for clarification. Findings are presented in connection with the installation's technical description and its surroundings.

The documentation explains the assessment conditions and the basis of values presented in the application, enabling the operator to relate it to actual installation use. The service covers an application with calculations. Separate measurements or design of technical modifications are agreed according to the specific task rather than included by default within the documentation commission.

Technical data

Subject Sources of gaseous or particulate emissions from a defined installation
Service type Emissions documentation and air permit application
Assessment basis and requirements Process and emissions data, operating conditions, and requirements and calculation methods appropriate to the sources assessed.
Method
  1. Identify processes, release points and operating-time information.

Ambient air quality and dust monitoring

Observe air quality alongside activity and site conditions

The campaign is designed around the investor's or operator's objective, the activity involved and locations sensitive to its effects. Parameters, monitoring positions and the observation period account for background conditions and possible unrelated sources. The scope aims to enable meaningful comparison between results and the progress of construction works or installation operations within the surrounding area.

Measurements are performed by an appropriate partner or subcontractor coordinated by KFB Enviro. We organise results and relate them to information about activity, weather and events affecting interpretation. Analysis describes variation and trends during the campaign, considering data quality and continuity. Individual episodes are distinguished from recurring patterns that may warrant attention or additional investigation.

An elevated ambient reading does not by itself establish the contribution of a particular source. The strength of interpretation depends on monitoring locations, parameters and contextual information. We explain whether the evidence supports a connection with site activity or requires additional comparisons. A short campaign is not automatically treated as a description of air quality throughout the year.

Technical data

Subject Ambient air quality and dust around projects, works or operating facilities.
Service type Ambient monitoring campaign delivered by a coordinated specialist partner.
Assessment basis and requirements Observation purpose, activity characteristics, local conditions and methods appropriate to the selected air quality parameters.
Method
  1. Define parameters, monitoring locations and the intended comparisons.
  2. Coordinate the campaign with an appropriate partner or subcontractor.
  3. Compare observations with activity and surrounding condition information.
  4. Assess trends, episodes and limitations on attributing their cause.
Delivery model Partner/subcontractor coordinated by KFB Enviro

What you receive

You receive data, a report and a trend assessment from the completed campaign. The report describes observation coverage, time-dependent results and interpretation against available activity and contextual information. It highlights events requiring attention and assessment limits, supporting further monitoring or review of construction and operating practices around the site.
