EN 19694-6:2016 Stationary source emissions - Determination of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in energy-intensive industries - Part 6: Ferroalloy industry
This European Standard provides a harmonized methodology for calculating GHG emissions from the ferro-alloys industry based on the mass balance approach2. It also provides key performance indicators over time of ferro-alloys plants. It addresses the following direct and indirect sources of GHG: ?? Scope 1 ?C Direct GHG emissions from sources that are owned or controlled by the company@ such as emissions result from the following sources: ?? smelting (reduction) process; ?? decomposition of carbonates inside the furnace; ?? auxiliaries operation related to the smelting operation (i.e. aggregates@ drying processes@ heating of ladles@ etc.). ?? Scope 2 ?C Indirect GHG emissions from: ?? the generation of purchased electricity consumed in the company??s owned or controlled equipment. This European Standard is to be used in conjunction with EN 19694-1@ which contains generic@ overall requirements@ definitions and rules applicable to the determination of GHG emissions for all energyintensive sectors@ provides common methodological issues and defines the details for applying the rules. The application of this standard to the sector-specific standards ensures accuracy@ precision and reproducibility of the results and is for this reason a normative reference standard. The requirements of these standards do not supersede legislative requirements.
