This document presents the draft emission standard for boilers, currently in the public consultation stage. Its objective is to regulate the emissions of particulate matter (PM), nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulfur dioxide (SO2), and mercury (Hg) from boilers, in order to prevent and protect public health and the environment. This standard, the first of national scope in Chile, will be applicable throughout the territory to new and existing sources, including cogeneration systems and recovery boilers with auxiliary combustion.
