Annual Survey of volatile air pollutants and control plan in 2009

Absrtact
The project was executed from June 25, 2009 to March 23, 2010, nine months in total. The main objectives of the project were control of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), guidance of pollution emissions reduction, the auditing of analysis process, investigation on Taoyuan refinement plant of Chinese Petroleum Corporation (CPC), assistance in examination of air pollution control fees, hold of all kinds of guidance councils, and etc., which were completed on schedule in this project. All work and progress were executed based on the contract and filled the bill. The detailed outcomes and progress were in Table 1.4-1. The aim of this annual project was control of Taoyuan refinement plant of refinement services department of CPC. The results involved (1) making inventories and filing all equipments and operation components: accomplished checking out five processes, and guided the factory to achieve making nine processes inventories/files, to get the accuracy and consistency and fit in with permits and declarations at air pollution control fees, emission and quarterly report; (2) examining the flare obeys the Act or not: guided factory to set up flow meters on eight ground and elevated flares, that flow monitors and concentration monitor of No.2 ground flare had been connected with Environmental Protection Bureau computer, confirmed the accuracy and rationality of exhaust way and the related parameters of flares operation report and asked them to send the change application in legal, and confirmed the present situation of three H2S elevated flares and requested them to meet the Act and regulations; (3) audited the compliance to regulation of oil-water separation tank in waste water processing station: completed five tanks of six regional oil-water separation tanks with cover to dispose of exhaust emissions effectively; (4) completed “Air pollution control and improvement by themselves of Taoyuan refinement plant of refinement services department of Chinese Petroleum Corporation’s consulting conference” on October 14, 2009, and ”Progress report conference of air pollution control and improvement by themselves of Taoyuan refinement plant of refinement services department of Chinese Petroleum Corporation” on December 2, 2009 and March 11, 2010. Phase-guidance/tracing on improvement item and progress of Taoyuan refinement plant of CPC, then make sure of the control indeed. Other outcomes of the project included: completed 150 firms for making inventories, 10,127 spots for testing equipments and components, 5 processes for screen by IR Camera-GasFindIR (FLIR Corp.), and 46 samples of 32 flues for analyzing pollutant, confirmed the coincidence rate of the VOCs trade regulation declaration (monthly coincidence rate were 100% until March 2010; quarterly coincidence rate were 100% from the first to the third in 2009), completed 5 firms for decreasing 216.78 tons/year VOCs emissions, detected 1,322 firms of levy subjects and pursued 213 firms of air pollution control fees (29,045,796 NT dollars) and audited 872 firms of air pollution control fees (included 659 firms for lower than 1 tons/quarterly of VOCs spot audit), completed emission audit of air pollution control fees in quarter three, etc. All contents and detail results were described on each chapter of this report. It is an extremely variation in calculation and criterion of VOCs emissions at present, particularly analysis time of flue and representative of sampling, to influence end-of-pipe concentration seriously. Then, it caused emissions much difference between declaration and air pollution control fees. We suggested that VOCs emissions should be calculated by mass-energy balance. And we asked various industry categories to set up experience values of factory emission to reflect actual conditions.
