Understanding Oil & Gas CO2 and NOx Emissions, and the Science Behind Reducing Them

Oil refineries, petrochemical, and chemical facilities are widely considered some of the largest contributors to nitrogen oxides (NOx), and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions which adversely affect the environment. Fired heaters emit an estimated 400 to 500 million tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) every year, with at least 73% of average refinery CO2 emissions coming from […]

Three Ways to Reduce Fired Heater Emissions

According to a recent Digital Refining article, fired heaters emit an estimated 400 to 500 million tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) every year, with at least 73% of average refinery CO2 emissions coming from combustion. Refineries and petrochemical plants are under increasing pressure to reduce emissions, while also looking for ways to reduce fuel consumption […]

IGS Facilitating a Carbon Capture and Storage Project

We stop CCS corrosion of new and repurposed vessel internals. “CCS is a necessity, not an option,” concluded the committee on Climate Change in May 2019. Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is a collection of technologies that prevent carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from entering the atmosphere. Carbon Capture technology can be used on any large […]
