These different regulations can cause e.g. competitive distortions or delay of investments in the context of approval procedures. The application of this standard contributes to a consistent approach for Germany in the approval procedures, the implementation and monitoring. The standard addresses operators, consultants, contractors and relevant authorities. This standard also applies to third parties involved in the operational area of the equipment and facilities for scrap woods. The standard describes the state of the art and applies to stationary, mobile and semi-mobile equipment and adherent facilities of other industries such as particle board plants or power plants, where scrap wood is stored, treated and handled.
