Glycol dehydrator BTEX and VOC emissions testing results at two units in Texas and Louisiana. Volume 1. Technical report. Final report, February-October 1994

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:56416

The report gives results of the collection of emissions tests data at two triethylene glycol (TEG) units to provide data for comparison to GRI-GLYCalc, a computer program developed to estimate emissions from glycol dehydrators. Site 1 test results yielded BTEX emission estimates that agreed reasonably well. Site 2 atmospheric rich/lean glycol and pressurized glycol emission results agreed closely with the total capture results for both BTEX and total VOCs. GRI-GLYCalc predictions using natural gas samples taken before the glycol absorber agreed well with the total capture results for total BTEX emissions.
