Therefore, the activity is termed Incineration, whether the thermal treatment of the waste is via [[Conventional Combustion]], [[Pyrolysis]], [[Gasification]] or indeed [[Plasma]] process, if the gases resulting from the treatment are subsequently incinerated<ref name='ref01'>European Commission, 2010. Industrial Emissions Directive 2010/75/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 November 2010 on industrial emissions (integrated pollution prevention and control). Official Journal of the European Union.</ref>. As an example, a [[Pyrolysis]] facility that burnt the produced [[Syngas]] to generate electricity would be Incineration, whereas a [[Pyrolysis]] facility that processed [[Syngas]] for vehicle fuel would not.

The standards for emissions limits, monitoring, waste reception and treatment standards that are acceptable for waste incineration plants were set in the [[Waste Incineration Directive]] (2000/76/EC) and updated in the [[Industrial Emissions Directive]] (2010/75/EU)<ref name='ref01' />. The [[Industrial Emissions Directive]] provides the framework for regulating across the EU and requires such installations to hold a [[Permit]] based on the use of [[Best Available ~~Techniques~~]] ([[BAT]]).

On the 3rd December 2019 new EU standards were published for waste incineration <ref> [https://ec.europa.eu/jrc/en/news/new-eu-environmental-standards-waste-incineration New EU environmental standards for waste incineration]</ref> for new emissions, monitoring and efficiency standards. The new specifications stem from a review of [[Best Available ~~Techniques~~]] ([[BAT]]) Reference Document ([[BREF]]) for Waste Incineration.
