Kurzbeschreibung
The environment's capacity to absorb emissions and waste products, as well as all of the other impacts of process technologies, is limited. The petroleum refining industry is keeping pace with environmental legislation to insure that air emissions, effluents, and waste products are handled as quickly as possible with minimum environmental disruption. Environmental Analysis and Technology for the Refining Industry offers a ready guide to the many issues that are related to ecosystems as well as to pollutant mitigation and cleanup. It focuses on the various aspects of environmental science and engineering as applied to the petroleum refining industry. Part I introduces petroleum technology. Part II discusses environmental technology and analysis, and provides information on environmental regulation and the impact of refining. The book provides examples of the application of environmental regulations to petroleum refining and to petroleum products, as well as current and proposed methods for the mitigation of environmental effects and waste management.
