Spanish term

URD

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Environment & Ecology Emissions
Source phrase: (según RD 100/2011 la clasificación correspondiente a los focos es A para la URD, B para Cogeneración, Calderas y APA y C para Reformings.

This is from a document from Spain on the status of their compliance with environmental regulations. In this sentence they are talking about emissions sources. I have been unable to find what URD stands for. I have searched the Real Decreto in question with no luck.

I'm also not sure whether the acronym is English or Spanish because this document has both.

Target audience is USA.

Thanks in advance

U could be unidad. If you could tell us what site or organisation the document refers to, without giving away any trade secrets, that might be helpful.
