three hours without interruption;
six hours without interruption in case of treatment of animal by-products referred to in Article 8(a)(i) and (ii) of Regulation (EC) No 1069/2009.

one hour without interruption in the case of animal by-products consisting of fish or of poultry materials.
The process must be carried out in a batch system and the material in the vessel must be constantly mixed in order to facilitate the digestion process until the tissues are dissolved and bones and teeth are softened; and
The animal by-products must be treated in such way that the requirements regarding time, temperature and pressure are achieved at the same time.
For this process, Category 2 and Category 3 materials may be used.

The fat fraction must be separated from the protein and in the case of fat from ruminant origin which is intended to be combusted in another plant, insoluble impurities in excess of 0,15 % by weight must be removed;
Following the process referred to in points (a) and (b), the fat must be:
vaporised in a steam-raising boiler and combusted at a temperature of at least 1 100 °C for at least 0,2 seconds; or
processed using equivalent process parameters authorised by the competent authority;
The combustion of material of animal origin other than animal fat must not be permitted;
The combustion of the fat derived from Category 1 and Category 2 materials shall take place in the same plant where the fat is rendered with the aim of utilising the energy generated for the rendering processes. However, the competent authority may authorise the movement of that fat to other plants for combustion provided that:

The combustion must be carried out in accordance with Union legislation for the protection of the environment, in particular, with reference to the standards of that legislation regarding best available techniques for the control and monitoring of emissions.
For this process, manure and digestive tract content and Category 3 material may be used.
Thermomechanical biofuel production shall be carried out according to the following processing standards:
The animal by-products must be loaded into a converter and subsequently treated at a temperature of 80 °C for a period of eight hours. During this period, the material must be constantly reduced in size using appropriate mechanical abrasion equipment.
The material must be subsequently treated at a temperature of 100 °C for at least two hours.
The particle size of the resulting material must not be larger than 20 millimetres;
The animal by-products must be treated in such a manner that the requirements regarding time, temperature and pressure set out in points (a) and (b) are achieved at the same time;
During the heat treatment of the material, evaporated water must be continually extracted from the air-space above the biofuel and must be passed through a stainless steel condenser. The condensate must be kept at a temperature of at least 70 °C for at least one hour before being discharged as wastewater;
After the heat treatment of the material, the resulting biofuel from the converter must then be discharged and automatically conveyed by a fully covered and interlocked conveyor to incineration or co-incineration on the same site;
The process must be carried out in a batch mode.
