Currently, processes involving the hydrocarbons sector, including oil refining, adopt demanding environmental policies and standards in response to the continuous and increasingly stringent environmental legislation and as part of its commitment to society to maintain a balanced environment. and contribute to sustainable development. These commitments generate that different researchers are studying the environment environment in this industries in the search for solutions that allow implementing actions that reduce environmental damage. The present research work seeks to develop the current problem and provide a solution regarding the emissions of Non-Methane Volatile Organic Compounds (NMVOC) that are storage in fixed roof tanks, which are currently disposed to the atmosphere through systems of relief valves. The first part developed the current situation of the NMVOC emissions, for which the amount issued during the 2017 period corresponding to 255 tons of NMVOC was estimated. The estimates of these emissions were made using the emission factors methodology which are applicable for the refinery under study. The second part of the work sought to develop a treatment system for NMVOC emissions currently available in the environment, with the aim of reducing the current flow available to the atmosphere and reduce the environmental impact it causes. Within the different existing treatment systems and considering as main aspect the volumetric flow of gases to be treated, which is 63.65 m3 / h, the treatment chosen for the correct disposal of these emissions was a condensation system. This system works with an average efficiency of between 70% to 75%. Finally, the technical characteristics of the main equipment present in the proposed NMVOC emission treatment system were determined, in which a reduction of NMVOC emissions of around 185 tonnes was estimated.
