Improvement of energy efficiency and ecology of oil and gas industry by disposal of extremely dangerous and toxic waste by the example of oil-associated gas
The oil industry in Russia is one of the largest sectors of the economy. Global growth in energy consumption, environmental trends and resource conservation policies require improved energy efficiency in industry. Reducing non-target costs and losses with emissions into the environment, using all possible energy sources is one of the solutions to the emerging problem. Utilization of associated gas refining in gas turbines is the possibility of generating an impressive amount of electricity from gas, the full potential of which, to date, is not realized. The article provides a chemical analysis of associated petroleum refining of gas, an assessment of the calorific value and environmental safety of its use, including purification, and also considers possible layouts of mini gas turbine power plants for working with associated petroleum gas from oil refineries.
