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.

What you receive

You receive an application for a permit to emit gases or dust to air, with calculations and the agreed supporting documentation. The package records emission sources, evidence and assessment assumptions. It shows how process parameters relate to the results, providing the technical basis of the application for the installation scope and operating arrangements assessed.

Post-completion environmental assessment

Understanding actual impacts after commissioning

The assessment programme starts with the scope in the project's documents. We establish environmental components, locations and assessment conditions, together with information required from the operator. Measurements must be linked to the facility's operating state: results obtained at partial load or during unusual activity may not be comparable with the assumptions adopted for the development.

We coordinate the necessary measurements and collect records of how the installation operated during the work. Results are compared with the relevant decision conditions and earlier assessment. Differences are explained in light of design changes, actual operating parameters and limits to comparability. This avoids treating numbers obtained under different technical circumstances as if they represented the same scenario.

The report explains what the findings show about the operating development and whether further verification or impact reduction should be considered. Measurement-supported conclusions are separated from questions needing additional evidence. Clear reference to the conditions assessed helps the operator use the report appropriately, including when considering later changes to the way the facility is used.

Technical data

Subject Actual environmental impacts of a development after commissioning
Service type Post-completion assessment using measurements and operational information
Assessment basis and requirements Project decision conditions, earlier assessment documentation and measurement methods appropriate to the environmental components covered.
Method
  1. Define the assessment programme from relevant decision conditions.
  2. Link measurements to documented facility operating conditions.
  3. Compare results with earlier assumptions and applicable requirements.
  4. Interpret differences and identify any further actions needed.

What you receive

You receive a post-completion assessment report describing its scope, results and assessment conditions. It compares actual impacts with the relevant assumptions and decision conditions, explains significant differences and presents conclusions. The report provides an organised basis for subsequent documentation, further checks or consideration of measures to reduce the facility's environmental impacts.

Waste generation permit application support

A waste balance connected to installation processes

We begin by tracing the production and supporting processes covered by the assignment. We establish where waste arises, what information is available and how streams may change at the proposed capacity or following modernisation. Existing operational data is distinguished from projections for a new solution so that historical quantities and application assumptions are not inadvertently combined.

We organise waste types and quantities, describe their origins and set out the agreed storage and handling arrangements. The balance is checked against operating parameters and source records supplied by the operator. Differences between process descriptions, records and forecasts are clarified, with missing information identified to support the adopted values and distinguish the individual waste streams.

The service concerns waste generation within a defined installation. This scope should not be confused with a permit for waste collection or treatment. The application describes the proposed waste management arrangements and their connection with the process, helping the operator relate the documentation to actual activities and understand how planned changes may affect the description prepared.

Technical data

Subject Waste streams generated by a defined installation
Service type Waste generation permit application and waste-stream balance
Assessment basis and requirements Process descriptions, operator records, capacity assumptions and documentation requirements relevant to the waste generation scope.
Method
  1. Connect waste generation points with the installation's processes.
  2. Collect waste type, quantity and handling information.
  3. Prepare the balance and check it against process assumptions.
  4. Develop the application with descriptions and support for adopted parameters.

What you receive

You receive a waste generation permit application based on the installation's agreed waste-stream balance. The documentation describes waste origins, adopted quantities and handling arrangements within the defined scope. It shows the connection between process parameters and application data, providing an organised package for use in the permitting procedure relating to the installation.
