In April of 2018, an optical gas imaging (OGI) and full flow sampler (FFS) emissions measurement study of pneumatic controllers (PCs) was conducted at 15 oil and natural gas production sites in West Virginia. The objective of the study was to…
Considerable effort and expense have been devoted to the estimation and acquisition of Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) data. To reduce the effort required and the number of reporting mistakes in the calculation of emissions, we developed an estimation…
Today the world energy market is in great transition and the demand for clean energy such as liquefied natural gas (LNG) is increasing rapidly. LNG is the main transfer form of long-range for water transportation and short range for land…
Petroleum hydrocarbons are a toxic pollutant group, primarily including volatile organic compounds (VOC), semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOC) and non-volatile organic compounds (NVOC). These pollutants can be accumulated on urban roads during dry…
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are abundant in nature and can occur in various forms in a wide variety of sources. Petroleum is one of the major sources of VOCs. Petroleum being the most widely used energy resources of the world, often released to…
Field data from the Deepwater Horizon (DWH) oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico (GoM) suggested that oxidation of gas compounds stimulated biodegradation of oil compounds in the deep sea plume. We performed experiments with local seawater from a…
"Volatile Organic Compounds"(VOCs) are known to contribute significantly to environmental pollution. Crude oil loading operations in a marine oil tanker produces a significant quantity of hydrocarbon (HC) vapours in the surrounding atmosphere. A…
A volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions inventory of the petroleum refinery in Hebei was established. This refinery emits 1859.2 tons of VOCs per year, with wastewater collection and treatment system being the largest emissions source, accounting…
An in-depth study was conducted to quantify and characterize VOC emissions from a petroleum refinery located in Shandong, China. The VOC emission inventory established in this study showed that storage tanks were the largest emission source,…

The process of operating volatile oil wells using the sucker rod pumping method is considered. An algorithm is developed to determine the main characteristics of the development of deposits in the oil wellreservoir system and the parameters of sucker…
Petroleum produced from low permeability shales is different to the dispersed in-situ fluids from which it is derived. Whereas in-situ fluids consist of hydrocarbons, resins and asphaltenes in proportions governed by organic matter type, maturity and…
This study intended to examine whether the volatile compounds, oxidation stability and fatty acid profile of soybean oil are influenced by the refining process methods and conditions. To that end, an electrostatic field as a non-thermal technology…
Diluted bitumen, also known as dilbit, is transported by rail and pipeline across Canada and the United States. Due to the fewer number of studies characterizing the toxicity of dilbit, a dilbit spill poses an unknown risk to freshwater aquatic…
Biopile could improve the remediation efficiency of petroleum-contaminated soil, but the volatilization of petroleum also occurred during the biopile process. To quantitatively estimate the roles of volatilization and microbial degradation during the…
