Abstract: | "Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are one of the key atmospheric pollutants associated with great impact on air quality. Industrial sources have become the most important source of VOCs emissions in China, of which the chemical industry accounts for a large part. At present, more than half of chemical manufacturers are clustered in chemical industrial parks (CIPs), thus the control of VOCs in CIPs is crucial. This study analyzed the production processes of the fine chemical industry and the principle of VOCs production, and then proposed an accounting model of VOCs emissions associated with production processes, based on a typical fine chemical industrial park:Hangzhou Bay Shangyu Economic and Technological Development Area (HSEDA). The quantity of VOCs generation in the main production processes, such as feeding, heating, chemical reaction gas take-off, cleaning, vacuum pumping, pressure release, and evaporating, were calculated. Meanwhile, the chemical process simulation software Aspen was also employed to simulate the VOCs generation in these processes. The methods were applied to 14 representative products in HSEDA and the feature of VOCs generation in the chemical processes mentioned above, and components were revealed. The results of the two methods were compared, and the difference between the two methods was within+/-22% except for the pressure release process. The model and accounting methods proposed in this study will have sound applicability in accounting for VOCs emissions in fine chemical industrial parks underpinned by quantitative chemical industry production parameters" |
