“…In other words, it presents a paradigm shift from media-specific permits to cross-media permits. The system can aid in the transition from existing media-specific permits, thus reducing procedural complexity, and is being implemented in numerous developed countries as an advanced environmental management method [8]. As a representative example, pollutant emission facilities in the European Union (EU) have been managed using an integrated management method since the late 1990s through Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control (IPPC) and the Industrial Emissions Directive (IED) [9,10].…”

Integrated environmental management (IEM) is an effective approach that comprehensively reviews the impact of pollutants emitted from a facility on the surrounding environment and minimizes pollution emissions through optimal, economically feasible means. The IEM system in Korea, as derived from countries in the European Union and other advanced countries, has been in force since 2017. This study presents the primary components and features of the IEM system in Korea. IEM specialized education is aimed at introducing expertise in the field and equipping learners with various skills upon completion, including in-depth research skills, to meet Korea’s stringent requirements. Regular performance checks and surveys of program participants are conducted to confirm objective results. Based on these data, the program is improved according to expert opinions and contributes numerous engineering inputs for environmentally sustainable management. The education system can be used to develop and apply processes for training system operation personnel in many countries interested in adapting IEM, as well as in Europe, which already utilizes an IEM system.

“…Therefore, a customized license/permission system can be introduced with one integrated permit instead of approximately 10 licenses and permits [6,7]. In particular, the Integrated Environmental Permission System is composed of BREFs, which are required for integrated environmental control planning, emission impact analysis, and an integrated environmental control system [8,9]. From this perspective, BREFs include the current status and overall processes of representative industries, including the primary industrial knowledge regarding various processes and techniques, ranging from raw material input to pollutant emissions and treatment techniques.…”

The textile industry in South Korea is characterized by excessive water consumption, high concentrations of wastewater, hazardous chemicals, and high energy consumption. This study aimed to analyze Best Available Techniques Reference Documents (BREFs) based on best available techniques (BATs) and BAT-associated emission levels (BAT-AELs) and identify potential solutions for tackling environmental pressure from the South Korean textile industry. Therefore, the existing practices of the textile dyeing and finishing industry in South Korea were compared with those from the BREFs of the European Union. Many existing BATs in South Korea are related to reducing water consumption. There is also a strong focus on BATs for reducing wastewater discharge and achieving energy-saving during treatment rather than after treatment, which differs from other industries. Moreover, BAT-AELs were derived for chemical oxygen demand, suspended solids, and total nitrogen for treating non-biodegradable, highly polluted wastewater. Furthermore, BREFs related to atmospheric pollution included dust generated from the heated fabrics in the finishing process that contained cadmium and phenolic hydrogen chloride from dyes and raw materials in the fabrics. Notably, the European Union has not specified BAT-AELs for the textile industry, whereas South Korea has tailored BAT-AELs for toxic and hazardous chemicals. Thus, numerous green techniques to reduce emissions and energy consumption are being implemented in South Korea.
