Course Introduction:

Since individual refineries and petrochemical facilities are uniquely configured, the techniques, which comprise a collection of operational, equipment and procedural actions, may not be applicable to every site. To better understand emission impacts, both ambient air quality monitoring and modeling is used. Dispersion modeling is sometimes conducted on specific emission sources to evaluate off-site potential concentrations.

Course Objectives:

To assist delegates:

in addressing the implications of International Environmental Protocols
in reviewing their air emission and waste disposal practice in the context of growing environmental awareness
in obtaining performance improvement through the implementation of an environmental management system
in forecasting emissions scenarios and developing specific control performance and good practices
in auditing an inventory and computer and other air emission modeling
by providing options for delegates in developing their organization’s air and waste management practice

Who Should Attend?

Health, Safety and Environmental professionals
Staff responsible for setting up Air and Waste Management Systems
Staff wishing to reduce risk and liability for their organization through sound air emission management practices, principles and procedures
