What Does Best Practical Control Technology (BPT) Mean?
Best Practical Control Technology (BPT) represents the best technology available for the control of pollutants that is available at a realistic cost and that can be operated under normal operating conditions. In the United States, the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 stipulates that certain types of operations must use BPT for the control of emissions. Such technologies include fuel cleaning, along with innovative techniques of combustion designed to effectively control pollutants.
