Investigation on Air Pollution Potential of SO2, H2S, and CO Emissions from the Shiraz Oil Refinery Chimneys

Air pollution is one of the industrial development outcomes whose intensity is increasing diurnally. In this matter, oil, gas and petrochemistry industries are of the most important sources of air pollutant emissions in the environment. In this study SO2, H2S and CO pollutant gases emitted from Shiraz Oil Refinery chimneys were sampled and analyzed during March to September 2014. The obtained data then were evaluated and compared to the standard values. The results show that concentrations of the emitted pollutants from all of the studied chimneys in Shiraz Oil Refinery are below standard permissible levels.
