Southern California Refinery, Compliance Engineering

A Southern California refinery was operating a thermal oxidizer in the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) that registered a flow rate of 267 SCFM, exceeding the maximum permissible. Envent diagnosed the problem, procuring a new sensor and recalibrating the refinery’s equipment.
San Francisco Refinery, Pipeline Depressurization & Degassing

A large refinery in California needed vapor control on a propane recovery line. In order to stay within the permit, the refinery would have to degas the pipeline to accommodate the Bay Area AQMD limits. A quick and easy vapor control solution was needed. 600 pounds of VOC’s removed just under five hours.
Texas, Butadiene Sphere Tank Degassing
