Oil and Gas Wellhead Emission Limits Are a Mixed Blessing for Thermal Treatment Suppliers

Regulations which prohibit raw gas discharges and those that require highly efficient combustion are creating an attractive market in the booming unconventional oil and gas industry in the U.S. Those regulations which are requiring beneficial use rather than combustion are a negative influence on the use of thermal technology, but create a substantial market for technologies to treat the gas for use in the pipeline or conversion to LNG or liquids. This is one of the many subjects addressed in Thermal/Catalytic World Air Pollution Markets.
