Energy management strategies in the oil industry for chemical and thermal environment pollution reduction

Abstract

This paper depicts certain thermodynamic processes possibly involved in the oil industry specific activities operation and/or proper equipment maintenance. On this basis we present a series of courses of action in performing processes like oil storage and transportation, aiming the thermal energy consumption reduction.

Research on the Carbon Dioxide Emission Factor as a Result of Fuel Combustion

“…Reducing greenhouse gas emissions and, consequently, preventing dangerous climate change can be achieved by reducing energy consumption and by using secondary energy sources and renewable energy sources, respectively [9].…”

“…ε CO2, I carbon dioxide emission relative to the inferior calorific value [g CO 2 /kWh]: (9) ε CO2, IS carbon dioxide emission relative to the superior calorific value [g CO 2 /kWh]: (10) In the relationships above m,n,r are the coefficients of the chemical formula C m H n O r .…”
