Abstract

Life Cycle Analysis was performed for 10 million tons of atmospheric and vacuum distillation operation unit, calculateing energy consumption and emissions of pollutants in five stages, including crude oil extraction, oil transport, crude oil processing, product using and product transport. Based on the analysis, it proposes several countermeasures of pollutant emissions. Subsequent articles discuss the two models of the life cycle costs in delayed coking process which using the actual refinery instance data.
