7 FOREWORD This publication has been prepared by the Vapour Recovery Working Group of the EI s Distribution and Marketing Committee. EU Directive 94/63/EC placed controls on volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions resulting from the storage of petrol and its distribution from terminals to filling stations. The first two editions of this publication provided information to assist terminal operators and filling station operators in their design and operation of vapour emission controls. The third edition, published in 2008, focused solely on the design, operation and maintenance of petrol vapour emission control systems at petrol distribution terminals, with comprehensive guidance on emission controls at filling stations being provided in the joint EI/APEA publication Design, construction, modification, maintenance and decommissioning of filling stations. This fourth edition provides an update on the 2008 publication taking account of industry experience of the operation and maintenance of vapour emission control systems over the last five years. As carbon adsorption type vapour recovery units are the norm in the UK, more detailed guidance on the operation of these types of units is included, in particular concerning the control of high temperature excursions. The revision of the guidelines has been undertaken to incorporate good practice learnt during the implementation of EU Directive 94/63/EC, both in the UK, and elsewhere in Europe. Although this publication has been written in response to European legislation, it is the intent that the recommendations are applicable wherever Stage 1 petrol vapour emission controls are to be implemented. The information contained in this code is provided as guidance only and while every reasonable care has been taken to ensure the accuracy of its contents, the EI cannot accept any responsibility for any action taken, or not taken, on the basis of this information. The Energy Institute shall not be liable to any person for any loss or damage which may arise from the use of any of its publications. Suggested revisions are invited and should be submitted to the Technical Department, Energy Institute, 61 New Cavendish Street, London, W1G 7AR. 4

10 1 INTRODUCTION AND SCOPE 1.1 BACKGROUND Concerns about the environmental and health effects of emissions of non-methane volatile organic compounds (NMVOCs) have led to European legislation imposing emission controls on the principal man-made sources of NMVOCs, e.g. solvents and petrol-powered automobiles. In addition, Directive 94/63/EC mandates emission reductions during the distribution of petrol. The reduction in emissions during the storage, loading, and off-loading of petrol is known as Stage 1 vapour control. Stage 1 is subdivided into: Stage 1a: the control of emissions during the receipt, storage and loading of petrol at terminals, and Stage 1b: the control of emissions during off-loading of road tankers into service station storage tanks. European legislation has also been introduced to control emissions during the refuelling of automobiles. Directive 2009/126/EC mandates so-called Stage 2 controls which require modification of the petrol dispenser permitting the vapours displaced from the automobile fuel tank to be fed back to the filling station storage tanks. The abatement of refuelling emissions can also be undertaken, as is mandated in the USA, by using a larger version of the carbon canister system which is currently installed on-board the automobile to control fuel system evaporative losses. Figure 1 shows the location of the stages diagrammatically. Both Stages 1 and 2 are closed systems in which vapours are prevented from being vented to atmosphere by being captured and collected for subsequent processing; for example, in a vapour recovery unit (VRU). Refinery Loading, transport and terminal operations Delivery to service stations Automobile refuelling Stage 1a Stage 1 Stage 2 Stage 1b or onboard carbon canister Figure 1 The stages of vapour emission controls 7
11 1.2 SCOPE These guidelines focus only on the design, operation and maintenance of vapour emission control systems at petrol distribution terminals, i.e. Stage 1a. The principles outlined may also be used at other sites, e.g. refinery off-sites, bulk liquid storage terminals, etc, although these may have their own additional specific considerations to be taken into account that are not addressed here. These guidelines apply to vapour collection and control systems for petrol vapour. They may not be appropriate for the control of emissions from the storage or handling of other products. Although the guidelines have been influenced by the need to comply with Directive 94/63/EC, it is the intent that they may be used wherever petrol vapour emission controls are to be installed. The guidelines have been written without reference to other legislation or local requirements which also have to be met in the installation and operation of control equipment. Only single stage vapour recovery technologies are addressed in the guidelines. No guidance is given on the installation and operation of more complex multi-stage units designed to meet emission limits which are much more stringent than those required by the Directive. For marine loading, the guidelines discuss primarily the on-shore vapour collection and control systems. For sea-going vessels the on-ship equipment requirements have been formulated by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) in MSC Circular 585 Standards for vapour emission control systems. 1.3 CONTROL TECHNOLOGIES Above-ground storage tanks at terminals It is possible to reduce evaporation in storage tanks significantly by covering the surface of the petrol with an external or internal floating roof. This technique is already widely used within the oil industry. Alternatively, vapours formed by evaporation in a fixed roof tank can be captured by connecting the vent of the tank directly to a vapour control system Loading of mobile containers (road tankers, rail tank cars and marine vessels) Directive 94/63/EC mandates that petrol vapours displaced from mobile containers whilst being loaded should be returned through a vapour-tight collection system to a VRU. At terminals where petrol is loaded onto inland waterway barges under certain circumstances vapour thermal oxidation can be substituted for recovery (see Annex A). The vapours displaced during the loading of a mobile container can be captured and fed to a vapour control system by the following means: Bottom loading: the vapours can be collected by connecting the vapour space(s) of a mobile container to a common vapour line. This can then be connected to a terminal vapour collection system. This is the loading mode mandated in the Directive for road tankers. Top loading: the vapours can be captured by modifying the loading arm so that the vapours are displaced directly into the terminal vapour collection line. This loading mode is the most commonly used in Europe for rail tank cars. 8
