Oil Refineries Odour Control Systems“Mist can be directly injected into flues and stacks and may be used as a substitute scrubbing solution in some applications.”
Oil refineries and petrochemical plants may generate large volumes of odours from the processing and refining of different fuels. Sulfides, mercaptans, and hydrocarbon compounds are all closely related to the oil industry. The odours generated from these compounds are of a high nuisance value and generally create concern among local air boards and the public. Misting or fogging may be used in a variety of areas around a refinery. These areas usually include water treatment facilities, sludge ponds, sulfur recovery units and API separators. During tank cleaning and maintenance operations, portable dispersion systems can be used in the immediate work area to control odourous emissions.
