“…Other IPPC-based initiatives are mostly focused on evaluating the implementation of the IPPC Directive in the affected sectors (Pellini and Morries, 2001;Silvo et al, 2009). The methods they propose include LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) for BAT selection (Nicholas et al, 2000), others propose indicators to assess environmental performance (Karavanas et al, 2009) and more recent works qualify BAT and analyse their suitability for the considered process (Samarakoon and Gudmestad, 2011;Schoenberger, 2011). In all cases these methodologies only apply over IPPC affected installations, never considering other sectors such as those typically integrated by SME.…”

“…Such initiatives can promote the use of eco-labelled articles to industries, municipalities and households (Bleda & Valente 2009). Implementation of ECS4 involves the treatment of all industrial effluents using BAT (Samarakoon & Gudmestad 2011). ESC5 introduces stormwater BMPs which can be used at the household level, at industrial sites, or within public open spaces Vymazal 2011).…”

Cities of the future face challenges with respect to the quantity and quality of water esources, and multiple managerial options need to be considered in order to safeguard urban surface water quality. In a recently completed project on 'Source control options for reducing emissions of Priority Pollutants' (ScorePP), seven emission control strategies (ECSs) were developed and tested within a semi-hypothetical case city (SHCC) to evaluate their potential to reduce the emission of selected European priority hazardous substances (PHSs) to surface waters. The ECSs included (1) business-as-usual, (2) full implementation of relevant European (EU) directives, (3) ECS2 in combination with voluntary options for household, municipalities and industry, (4) ECS2 combined with industrial treatment and best available technologies (BAT), (5) ECS2 in combination with stormwater and combined sewer overflow treatment, (6) ECS2 in combination with advanced wastewater treatment, and (7) combinations of ECS3-6. The SHCC approach was chosen to facilitate transparency, to allow compensating for data gaps and to decrease the level of uncertainty in the results. The selected PHSs: cadmium (Cd), hexachlorobenzene (HCB), nonylphenol (NP) and pentabromodiphenyl ether (PBDE) differ in their uses and environmental fate and therefore accumulate in surface waters to differing extents in response to the application of alternative ECS. To achieve the required reduction in PHS levels in urban waters the full implementation of existing EU regulation is prioritised and feasible combinations of managerial and technological options (source control and treatment) can be highly relevant for mitigating releases.
