AFPM applauds EPA decision making way for more streamlined Louisiana carbon capture projects

WASHINGTON, D.C. – American Fuel & Petrochemical Manufacturers (AFPM) today issued the following statement from Leslie Bellas, AFPM vice present of regulatory affairs, commending the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) decision to grant Louisiana primary enforcement responsibility (primacy) for the permitting and regulation of Class VI injection wells in the state. EPA’s decision makes Louisiana the third state, after North Dakota and Wyoming, where carbon capture projects have a streamlined permit approval process that allows for safe and efficient implementation.

Sour Water Ammonia Recovery - a Low Carbon Intensity Product

Crude, Sustainability


Technology exists to recover ammonia from Sour Water. This ammonia is considered a low carbon intensity (CI) source since it was a waste stream and can be used, for example, as a liquid hydrogen carrier for further low CI uses. This session will highlight technologies to enable ammonia recovery, utilization, and how ammonia recovery meshes into an overall facility nitrogen and sulfur management strategy.

Best Practices & Technologies for Processing a Variable Crude Diet

Crude, Coking


Successfully processing a changing crude diet can be a challenge from the tank farm through distillation. Upsets and performance reductions lead to processing cost penalties downstream, loss of production, and environmental impacts through greater emissions and brine water quality issues. Optimizing the design, operational parameters and chemical injection schema from crude receipts through the hot train can minimize these cost penalties and ensure performance is maintained.
