Practice Measures to Reduce or Destroy VOC Emissions
Facilities must prepare case-specific VOC emissions elimination and reduction plans.
Some chemical industry measures include:
- Process modifications.
- Using high-quality equipment and materials to prevent leakages.
- Regular equipment maintenance.
- Substituting VOCs.
- Installing gas monitoring equipment to monitor emissions.
- Implementing VOC destruction techniques like oxidation, flaring, biological destruction, etc.
- If possible, use techniques for recovering and reusing VOCs.
Industries must develop techniques that best suit their interests and the chemicals' properties. Generalized practices may not be suitable for all industries, so each industry should conduct further research to find the best method for its specific case.
