Abstract

The polluant emission of petrol and oil products vapors to the atmosphere from the volume above the liquid fuel surface in petrol and oil products storage tanks and refueling stations happens during the tanks' refilling. The oil products emissions deteriorate the environmental situation, they may result into explosion and fire danger. The «Kedr» installation intended for benzine and other oil products' vapors catching is described. Such vapors are supplanted and forced out from the tanks during their refilling with oil products. The vapors are condensed at –50 °C in a specially provided heat exchanger due to evaporation of liquid nitrogen which is directed after its heating into the volume above the fuel surface and thus creates a safe nitrogen-benzine mixture. This installation permits to condense and to get back the merchandise quality of up to 95-98 % of emitted benzine vapors. In order to reduce the liquid nitrogen consummation the installation is able to precool the vapors with refrigerating machines. Actually in the city of Moscow and other Russian cities more that 10 such installations are helping not only to resolve the complexe task of returning and reusing of an expeusive fuel, but to assure in the same time the productional safety and the environment protection.
