Air pollutants emitted into the atmosphere as a result of combustion and process activities from any emission source that alters the natural composition of the air are defined as “emission.”

Failure to take necessary precautions during the establishment and operation of industrial facilities, or the use of inappropriate technologies in process applications, can lead to the formation of pollutant emissions. The regulations published by the Ministry of Environment and Urbanization impose legal obligations to control emissions, mitigate the negative effects that cause significant environmental damage due to air pollution, and prevent these effects from occurring.

To control pollutant emissions, it is necessary first to identify the pollutant sources, then perform measurement and analysis. The identification of the parameters to be measured considers the type of activity (combustion-process), the chemicals used, and the pollutants likely to be present as specified in the regulations. Following the identification process, measurement and sampling at the source are conducted using technological devices according to national and international methods and standards. After the analysis of the measured and sampled parameters, an evaluation is made within the scope of the regulations, and a measurement report is completed. Based on the measurement results, if necessary, the company is required to implement emission reduction measures.

Emission measurements can be carried out for control purposes and within the scope of regulations. Facilities listed in Annex-1 and Annex-2 under the Environmental Permit and License Regulation are required to conduct emission measurements every two years.

The laboratory that will conduct the measurements must be accredited according to the TS EN ISO/IEC 17025 standard by the Turkish Accreditation Agency (TÜRKAK) and must have a “Laboratory Competency Certificate” from the Ministry of Environment and Urbanization.
