Recital 30
(30) Due to the characteristics of certain indigenous solid fuels, it is appropriate to apply minimum desulfuration rates rather than emission limit values for sulphur dioxide for combustion plants firing such fuels. Moreover, as the specific characteristics of oil shale may not allow the application of the same sulphur abatement techniques or the achievement of the same desulphurisation efficiency as for other fuels, a slightly lower minimum desulphurisation rate for plants using this fuel is appropriate. As the specific characteristics of indigenous solid fuels whose volatile content is less than 10 % may not allow the fulfilment of the established NOx emission limit values, a higher minimum NOx emission limit value is appropriate.
