Synopsis: Introduction: Types of gaseous emissions; environmental problems. VOC emissions: Condensation; absorption; adsorption; incineration; biofiltration for abatement; odour control. Acid gases: Absorption-stripping processes; simulation of absorption-stripping processes; design of split-loop processes; H2S removal; sulphur recovery; CO2 removal; NOx removal. Flue gas emissions minimisation: Targeting flue gas emissions; role of heat integration; fuel switch; utility and process changes; site-wide approaches.
