Abstract

This report is the seventh in the series of reports presenting the results of the API Annual Refining Residual Survey. Included in the report are detailed assessments of generated quantities and management practices for fourteen individual and two combined residual streams, trends in management practices, average costs for selected residual stream management, types of wastewater treatment systems employed at refineries, pollution prevention activities, refinery capacities, and regions in which refineries are located. The data in this report indicate a decrease of greater than 25percent in the quantity of residuals generated by the refining industry from 1994 to 1995.
