Best Available Techniques Reference Document (BREF)

Best Available Techniques Reference Document (BREF) refers to a European Union range of reference works developed to exchange information between industrial sectors and non-government organization (NGOs) in different member states, and the European Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control Bureau (IPCC/EIPPCB). The EIPPCB was established in 1997 to promote the best available technology (BAT) to reduce atmospheric pollution and promote effective monitoring of air quality.
The European IPPC Bureau is part of the Circular Economy and Industrial Leadership Unit of the Joint Research Centre (JRC) Science Hub.
