ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY DEVELOPMENT OF FERTILIZER PRODUCTION: MODERNIZING TECHNOLOGY AND EQUIPMENT
Abstract
Main drivers of the industrial growth in the modern society include energy efficiency, compliance with national legislation and international agreements, social and environmental responsibility. Integration of these factors should be applied to the long-term development plans as the framework of sustainable development, environmental and resource efficiency. Currently, more and more countries are moving towards Best Available Techniques (BAT). Russia developed 51 Reference Document on BAT (BREF) for main industrial sectors. At the moment, the information collected in BREFs is mainly used for regulation, technology assessment and obtaining integrated environmental permits. However, BREFs provide a wealth of information on Best Available and Emerging Techniques as well as technological and pollution abatement, so they can be used as a source of organizational, technological and technical information for improving existing techniques and developing new more efficient ones. The paper demonstrates the example of practical application of Russian and European BREFs for the production development measures of mineral fertilizer production resulting in resource, energy and environmental efficiency increase. Therefore, it is advisable to use BREFs for the designing of production development plans.
