9、ts have been evaluated and reported in this study, but no optimum or “best“ design is implied. This study was as comprehensive as time allowed, but doubtlessly there are other pollution prevention measures that have potential application to crude units. Each refiner will need to make an assessment o

10、f his refinerys requirements and then consider the ideas that best suit those needs. Corporate planning, engineering, regulatory, and operations personnel will be able to use the ideas and techniques reported in this study as an initial step toward a more thorough case-by-case evaluation of pollutio

11、n prevention for the crude units at individual refineries. 1.3 For a model new crude unit (Case 1), the following pollution prevention ideas may be considered in the design stage and are reported in Section 6: Pollution Prevention Ideas for Model New Crude Unit Apply pinch analysis to the crude preh

25、dings Air emissions, wastewater effluents, solid wastes, energy consumption, and costs are summarized in Table 1.1. Figures 1.1 through 1.4 give graphical representations of air emissions, wastewater loads, and solid waste generation. The findings of this pollution prevention study on refinery crude

26、 units are summarized below: A generic systematic methodology for conducting pollution prevention studies on process units can be applied to the crude unit in a typical refinery. 0 There is a correlation between energy efficiency and environmental effectiveness: the more efficient the crude unit, th

27、e less it pollutes. O The total energy usage in the crude unit can be reduced by improving heat integration in the crude preheat train through pinch analysis. O Reductions in wastewater generation can be achieved by energy reduction and stream recycling. 7 API PUBL+33303 93 m 0732290 0528873 lT5 m e

28、 Reductions in solid and hazardous wastes can be achieved by water recycling and preventing the mixing of hazardous and non- hazardous waste streams. If the heaters burn high sulfur fuel, limestone scrubbing for SO, reduction will generate non-hazardous sludge. e NO, emissions can be reduced by new

29、generation low NO, burners, SCR units, and Flue Gas Recirculation (FGR). e The total annual benzene quantity (TAB) in wastewater can be reduced by steam stripping. Fugitive emissions from piping components can be reduced by hardware improvements and stringent inspection 8z maintenance programs. 8 AP
