FERP - Fugitive Emissions

Fugitive emissions of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) are monitored according to the EPA 453/95, EN 15446 and EPA 21 Method. FERP implements programs for fugitive emissions reduction, using a VOC analyzer to detect potentially leaking sources and quantify the total VOC amount. Thanks to the SMART LDAR protocol, according to EPA 6560-50-P (Alternative work practice to detect leaks from equipment) for the detection of VOC fugitive emissions by remote inspective technique with infrared IR OGI Camera (Optical Gas Imaging); Ferp also support the combined inspective protocols LDAR – SMART LDAR. LDAR and SMART LDAR inspective activities for the detection of VOC fugitive emissions can be applied to the whole plant or only to parts of it, within a planned activity to reach a complete supervision of the inventory in the timeframe agreed with the inspective authorities.
