This book is one of several books that summarize readily available information on control techniques and measures to mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from specific industrial sectors. These books are solely intended to provide basic information on GHG control technologies and reduction measures in order to assist States and local air pollution control agencies, tribal authorities, and regulated entities in implementing technologies or measures to reduce GHGs under the Clean Air Act, particularly in permitting under the prevention of significant deterioration (PSD) program and the assessment of best available control technology (BACT). These books do not set policy, standards or otherwise establish any binding requirements; such requirements are contained in the applicable EPA regulations and approved state implementation plans.This book provides information on control techniques and measures that are available to mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the petroleum refining industry at this time. Because the primary GHG emitted by the petroleum refining industry are carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4), the control technologies and measures presented here focus on these pollutants. While a large number of available technologies are discussed here, this book does not necessarily represent all potentially available technologies or measures that that may be considered for any given source for the purposes of reducing its GHG emissions. For example, controls that are applied to other industrial source categories with exhaust streams similar to the petroleum refining industry may be available through "technology transfer" or new technologies may be developed for use in this sector.The information presented in this book does not represent U.S. EPA endorsement of any particular control strategy. As such, it should not be construed as EPA approval of a particular control technology or measure, or of the emissions reductions that could be achieved by a particular unit or source under review.
