挥发性有机物污染控制方案的运行费用效能比较

Operation and Maintenance of Cost-Effective Volatile Organic Compounds Abatement Alternatives

当前,中国挥发性有机物(volatile organic compounds,VOCs)的污染控制工作已进入深水区,VOCs污染控制措施费用效能的高低将决定其减排工作的环保意义,筛选出费用效能高的措施也是VOCs减排工作能够持续稳定进行的必要基础.本文从排放浓度、排放风量及连续还是间歇排放等污染源排放特征角度确定出12种典型的VOCs排放情景,针对这些典型情景估算了目前主流减排方案的运行费用,并以减排单位质量VOCs的运行费用(unit abatement cost,UAC,元·kg^-1,以VOCs计)为费用效能指标进行了技术经济比较,以期为依据VOCs排放特征选择适宜的减排方案提供参考.分析结果表明,对于低浓度VOCs排气,其减排UAC总体达8元·kg^-1以上,浓缩工序可有效减少UAC,通过合理地气体收集方式减少排放风量并提高排气浓度对后续处理的费用效能影响巨大.强化VOCs排放过程的按质分类收集以提高得到VOCs液体的资源化属性,也是今后提高VOCs控制费用效能的有效途径之一.

Presently,volatile organic compounds(VOCs)pollution control in China has entered the deep-water zone,facing difficult challenges.The cost-effectiveness of VOCs abatement alternatives will determine the final environmental benefits.Screening of abatement alternatives with good cost-effectiveness and performance is important to form a sound basis for VOCs emission abatement work to create sustainable and stable alternatives.In this study,12 typical emission scenarios are set up based on the emission characteristics of pollution sources,such as emission concentration,airflow volume,continuous or intermittent emissions,and fluctuations in concentration.Based on these typical scenarios,the operation costs of current mainstream emission abatement alternatives is estimated,and a cost-effectiveness comparison is made using the unit abatement cost(UAC,yuan·kg^-1,VOCs)as the index.The results obtained can provide a reference for choosing appropriate VOCs abatement alternatives according to the characteristics of VOCs emission.Results show that for low concentration VOCs,the UAC of emission abatement is normally more than 8 yuan·kg^-1.The concentration in the process plays an important role in reducing UAC.Therefore,the reasonable collection of VOCs gas,resulting in smaller emission volume and higher concentration,has a significant impact on the subsequent emission abatement costeffectiveness.Enhancing the classification collection of VOCs to improve resource attributes of the recovered VOCs liquid is also an effective way to improve the cost effectiveness of VOCs abatement.
