A timely, hands-on guide to environmental issues and regulatory standards for the petroleum industry
Environmental analysis and testing methods are an integral part of any current and future refining activities. Today's petroleum refining industry must be prepared to meet a growing number of challenges, both environmental and regulatory.
Environmental Analysis and Technology for the Refining Industry focuses on the analytical issues inherent in any environmental monitoring or cleanup program as they apply to today's petroleum industry, not only during the refining process, but also during recovery operations, transport, storage, and utilization. Designed to help today's industry professionals identify test methods for monitoring and cleanup of petroleum-based pollutants, the book provides examples of the application of environmental regulations to petroleum refining and petroleum products, as well as current and proposed methods for the mitigation of environmental effects and waste management.
Part I introduces petroleum technology, refining, and products, and reviews the nomenclature used by refiners, environmental scientists, and engineers. Part II discusses environmental technology and analysis, and provides information on environmental regulation and the impact of refining.
Coverage includes:
* In-depth descriptions of analyses related to gaseous emissions, liquid effluents, and solid waste
* A checklist of relevant environmental regulations
* Numerous real-world examples of the application of environmental regulations to petroleum refining and petroleum products
* An analysis of current and proposed methods of environmental protection and waste management

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. Hardcover, xii + 349 pages, NOT ex-library. Book is fine, clean and bright throughout with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Issued without a dust jacket. -- Written by renowned petroleum expert James G. Speight, this book serves as a comprehensive, practical guide to managing the environmental impact of petroleum refining operations. It bridges the gap between process engineering and environmental compliance, providing a single-source reference on the types of waste generated, the methods for their analysis, and the technologies available for their treatment and control. The book systematically covers the three major waste streams: 1. Gaseous Emissions (detailing the sources and control of sulfur oxides (SOx), nitrogen oxides (NOx), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and other airborne pollutants); 2. Liquid Effluents (analyzing the composition of refinery wastewater - including phenols, sulfides, and heavy metals - and outlining modern wastewater treatment plant technologies); 3. Solid Wastes (addressing the management of spent catalysts, sludge, and other solid byproducts). Beyond treatment, the text emphasizes pollution prevention and waste minimization strategies. It provides engineers, environmental managers, and refinery operators with the foundational knowledge and technical data needed to understand regulatory requirements, implement effective monitoring programs, and select appropriate control technologies.
