As part of its fourth environmental programme, Nizhnekamskneftekhim introduced an automated system for wastewater quality control.
First of all, this means gas analytical control sensors. They were installed this autumn on 27 wells of the chemically contaminated drainage collector system (CCDC), which are located on the territory of the industrial zone. These devices are necessary to monitor the state of gas contamination in wells.
In order to strengthen the quality control of emissions, the company also introduced the so-called hydrocarbons control cabinets (HCC). This equipment is designed to determine the content of pollutants. As with gas sensors, the information obtained with the aid of HCC is duplicated in the operations control service that also receives information from stationary posts located around the company’s perimeter and at biological treatment facilities. In the future, the company plans to install automated systems for recording pollutant emissions at stationary sources of category I facilities.
Nizhnekamskneftekhim is currently introducing new environmental projects. In particular, its latest development is a new system for automated monitoring of atmospheric air that predicts the emission situation for a period of one to three days, with due account for all emissions from the company.
