The Importance of Vapor Recovery Units (VRUs) in Oil Refining

Jafar Ali, Ashin Seetharam

Abstract: Vapor Recovery Units (VRUs) are pivotal technologies in the oil refining industry, designed to capture and repurpose volatile organic compounds (VOCs) released during refining operations. These emissions, if left unchecked, can significantly contribute to air pollution and climate change, making VRUs essential for both environmental compliance and corporate responsibility. This paper provides a comprehensive analysis of the operational principles of VRUs, their integration into refinery processes, and their multifaceted benefits.

Keywords:  benefits include Environmental Compliance, Resource Efficiency, Economic Advantages, Corporate Reputation, Future-Proofing Operations.
