29、avy liquid (HL) service. It includes an analysis of whether the type of distillate or residual hydrocarbon in the stream would influence the emission factors. The objectives were accomplished using existing screening data for components in HL service and confirming those data with new screening data

30、 obtained from refineries without Leak Detection and Repair (LDAR) programs. These factors, expressed in pounds/hour/component, are such that they can be multiplied by the number of individual components in HL service in a refinery to calculate the volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions due to le

31、aks from those components. Extensive statistical analysis of the screening data and related process parameters was performed. TECHNICAL APPROACH Refineries in Southern California (SoCal) were solicited for available HL screening data. Four refineries responded, providing 2 1 1,290 discrete screening

32、 values. Leak Detection and Repair has been practiced at these refineries for approximately ten years on components in gas (G) and light liquid (LL) service, but not for HL service. Nevertheless, because SoCal has tight emission controls, it was decided to conduct additional HL component screenings

33、in an area without LDAR to determine whether or not the Soca1 HL screening values were representative. The site chosen for the HL screenings was Washington State, which is in attainment for all of the National Ambient Air Quality Standards for VOCs and where LDAR programs are not required except for

34、 new or modified facilities under the New Source Performance Standards (NSPS). More than 2,500 discrete values were recorded from which the average emission factors for each component category were computed. A sampling matrix was used for the Washington test which would cover a representative range

35、of middle distillate and residual process streams. These data were compared to values from SoCal to assess whether they were representative of all refineries. CONCLUSIONS The screening tests performed as part of the program showed that the emission factors for the refineries in Southern California,

36、for which HL screening data were available, were similar to ES- 1 API PUBL*337 96 0732290 0558195 Tb7 emission factors determined based on measurements at the Washington State refineries. Both sets of emission factors are lower than those published in EPAs “Protocol for Equipment Leak Estimates,” Co

37、ntract 68-dl -0 1 17, for EPA by Radian Corp., June 1993 (EPA 1993). The Washington State factors are lower than those from Southern California for all components with the exception of pumps. The higher pump value in Washington State was influenced by one pump leaking at a high rate. The screening v

38、alues for components in HL service were found to be independent of stream temperature and hydrocarbon composition (as defined by the 10% Distillation Temperature, ASTM Method D86). At first this may seem odd. The heavy liquid streams range from kerosene to asphalt. Intuitively, kerosene should leak

39、more than asphalt. However, a reasonable explanation of this observed phenomenon is that the heavier hydrocarbons, which are more viscous and less volatile at ambient temperatures, inherently circulate in higher temperature process streams. Therefore, for the medium-weight middle distillate, the hea

40、vy-weight middle distillate, and the heavy residual streams, it appears that the viscosity and vapor pressure (properties that affect leakage) have a similar effect on the screening values. In this report, the SoCal data are presented and discussed along with the details of the Washington State test

41、s. An extensive statistical analysis of the various data sets is presented in Appendix A discussing various methods of combining the data to derive emission factors.

Interestingly, the stream in which the large leak was discovered is one of the heavier hydrocarbon streams, a material that is discharged at the bottom of the atmospheric still
