This article summarizes the Concawe study, ‘Techniques for detecting and quantifying fugitive emissions—results of comparative field studies’, that compares the two BAT (best available techniques) detection methods for refinery fugitive emissions (leaks) of...
Report no. 12/14: This report provides the results of a programme of work undertaken to compare the controlled rate of release of propane from a simulated floating roof tank with the flux determined using information on wind data and DIAL measurements. The effects of...
Report no. 5/14: This report reviews the different methods available to estimate annual Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) emissions from primary oil-water separator systems in refineries and discusses the results obtained by applying some of these in two field trials...
Report no. 7/11: CO2 Capture and Storage (CCS) is a potential route to large scale reduction of CO2 emissions to the atmosphere from large power generation and manufacturing facilities. It does, however, raise a number of technological, economic and legal challenges....
Report No. 6/11 This report explores the cost-effectiveness of emission reductions in European refineries associated with Best Available Techniques (BAT) and illustrates how Associated Emission Level (AEL) ranges might be derived using a “shadow price”. This...
