Technology of sulfur reduction in petroleum refinery flare disposal using waste metals

Abstract

In this experimental study, the most important topics were highlighted, namely that in all oil refineries and oil and gas producing fields, large quantities of gas are burned for purposes including getting rid of sulfur compounds and hydrogen sulfide gas (Fig. 1). The emissions of these fuels are released into the atmosphere, leaving behind greenhouse gases such as sulfur dioxide and carbon dioxide. These gases are known to directly impact climate change and global warming, in addition to being toxic and carcinogenic substances for humans, animals, and other living organisms.
