GHG Emissions in Refinery - Overview
Well to tank (WTT) is on average
20% of the well to wheel emission.
Refining is ~10 kg CO2/MMBtu LHV
of gasoline.
Refining emission varies widely.
Industry has proactively reduced GHG
emissions.
Recent changes e.g. COP 21 -- early
consideration in project lifecycle.

Carbon Management – Path Forward
For an Oil Refinery, what will be the most economic
approach to reduce carbon emission in near future?
4
1. Don’t install the refinery.
2. Use CO2 for greenhouses/ grow plants.
3. Reduce fossil fuel consumption.
4. Convert CO2 to chemicals.
5. Reduce power consumption.
6. Capture flue gas CO2 & sequester.

Emissions Contributions – Units
Different units contributions*of a typical refinery :
• Distillation: 16.8%
• FCC: 35.1%
• Distillate Hydrotreater: 20.3%
• Kerosene Hydrotreater: 7.4%
• Naphtha Hydrotreater: 20.2%
• Others: 0.1%
* Estimated.
Based on a light feedstock of 38.5 oAPI and 0.6 wt% S.
Can we focus our attention only on heating and FCC for
CO2 emission reduction?

Emission Sources in Heavy Oil Refinery
• High yield - ~3-4% unconverted residue or ‘pitch’;
• Emission much higher than a light crude Refinery.
Options for Emissions Reduction
�Alternate fuel for heating?
�Lower conversion of residue?
� ‘Pitch’ processing for carbon conversion?
� `Pitch` processing for hydrogen production?
�Alternate power supply source?
�Carbon mineralisation?
�Carbon capture from hydrogen production?
�Carbon capture from flue gas?
