Directive 2010/75/EU of the European Parliament and the Council on industrial emissions (the [[Industrial Emissions Directive]] or [[IED]]) is the main EU instrument regulating pollutant emissions from industrial installations.

The objectives of The [[Industrial Emissions Directive]] ([[IED]]) are to “reduce emissions into air, soil, water and land and to prevent the generation of [[waste]], in order to achieve a high level of protection of the environment as a "whole” by reducing harmful emissions across the EU, in particular through better application of [[Best Available Technique|Best Available Techniques]] ([[BAT]])<ref name="IED">https://ec.europa.eu/environment/industry/stationary/ied/legislation.htm</ref>. Around 50,000 installations undertaking the industrial activities listed in Annex I of the IED are required to operate in accordance with their [[Environmental Permit]] which contains conditions set in accordance with the principles and provisions of the IED<ref name="IED"~~>[https:~~//ec.europa.eu/environment/industry/stationary/ied/legislation.htm European Commission (2010).

Operator’s combusting waste would need to comply with Chapter IV of the IED - Special Provisions for waste incineration plants and waste co-incineration plants'.

The IED was adopted on 24 November 2010 and is a recast of the [[Waste Incineration Directive]] ([[WID]]) alongside six other European Directives including the [[Integrated Pollution and Prevention Directive]] ([[IPPC]]) and the Large Combustion Plants Directive and is enacted via the [[Environmental Permitting (England and Wales) Regulations 2010]], as amended.

The IED is based on several pillars, in particular (1) an integrated approach, (2) use of best available techniques, (3) flexibility, (4) inspections and (5) public participation<ref name="IED" />.
