VDI 3462 Blatt 5:2009-03

This guideline applies to combustion systems burning wood and wood-based panels treated with wood preservatives or containing halogenated organic compounds or heavy metals as a result of coating, and the resulting waste streams. These types of facility are subject to the provisions of Section 8.1 of the annex to 4. BImSchV in conjunction with 17. BImSchV (German Federal Immission Control Ordinances Nos. 4 and 17). Facilities and appliances for the combustion of wood and wood-based panels, which are not treated with wood preservatives and not coated with materials containing halogenated organic compounds or heavy metals, are covered by VDI 3462 Part 4. Further processes and operations involved in wood machining and processing are described in guidelines VDI 3462 Part 1 to Part 3. The emission measurement instructions applicable to all parts of the VDI 3462 guideline series are given in VDI 3462 Part 6. The applicable safety rules and regulations remain unaffected by this guideline. For safety-relevant plant equipment in terms of the German Major Accidents Ordinance (12. BImSchV), additional measures beyond those described in this guideline may be required on a case-by-case basis. Reference is made to the German laws, ordinances, administrative and other regulations applicable to the construction and operation of the facilities covered by this guideline (see Bibliography). Unless expressly stated otherwise, all gas volumes indicated in this guideline relate to standard temperature and pressure conditions (273 K, 1013 hPa) after deduction of the water vapour content.
