Enviro & Industrial Solutions ME has supplied a complete
air quality monitoring network for the Sadara Project. This was an initiative
by Kellogg Brown & Root Saudi LTD (KBR) as they are one of the main
curators for the Sadara project.
The Sadara Project
The Sadara Project is a world scale chemical project being constructed in Jubail Industrial City in Saudi Arabia. This is the world’s largest chemical complex ever built in a single phase, with 26 integrated world-scale manufacturing plants that will produce more than three million tons of products every year.
Fenceline monitoring in air quality monitoring network is designed to help refineries and surrounding communities understand how the emissions controls in place at a refinery are working.
The only way to accurately demonstrate the effectiveness of
pollution control inside the facility is to monitor emissions on the perimeter
(or fenceline). Numerous studies have shown the benefits of both to the
operator and to the community of having an ongoing real-time perimeter
monitoring capability, such as:
- Providing an independent reference point for
impact on surrounding air
- Giving the operator a chance to respond to
events before they become a problem
- Optimizing pollution control and abatement
practices within the facility
- Inventory of CO2 and other GHG emissions
Aeroqual’s compact air monitoring station represents a new
approach, one that delivers the known benefits of fenceline monitoring whilst
also being economically viable for industry.
