Collaborative control of pollution and carbon reduction in the process of onshore oil and gas exploitation

The oil and gas industry is an important source of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emissions and the largest industrial release source of methane (CH₄). The coordinated control of VOCs and CH₄ in oil and gas exploitation to achieve pollution reduction and carbon reduction is of great significance to China's atmospheric environmental governance and the realization of the "double carbon" goal. Most of the VOCs and CH₄ emission sources in the process of oil and gas exploitation have the same root homology, and the organized emission of processes and the torch emission are the largest VOCs emission source and CH₄ emission source, respectively. On the basis of adding the collaborative control path of new networked monitoring, selecting appropriate control measures can improve the efficiency of collaborative control of pollutants. The multi-pollutant cost-benefit method in the cost-benefit accounting of pollution control has higher economic benefits. The absorption method and adsorption method are VOCs treatment technologies with higher technical maturity and economy, and reducing the number of compressor and engine start-ups is the most economical CH₄ emission reduction measure.
