description |
Over the past two decades, the growing
awareness of the role that emissions play in human health
and environmental degradation had led to a general movement
in many parts of the world to control emissions to reduce
the impacts. This movement has mainly taken two forms: 1)
the development and subsequent required use of control
devices for stationary sources and vehicle sources and, 2)
changes in the specifications of transportation fuels to
reduce emissions of the major pollutants. These trends
originated in the industrialized countries and are now
spreading, at different rates, throughout the world. As in
other world regions, the first improvement in the
specifications of transportation fuels in Sub-Saharan Africa
was the elimination of lead. The phase out of lead is now
complete and the World Bank and its partners are looking at
the next step the reduction of sulfur in transportation
fuels. The growing complexity of the vehicle emission
control technologies for both personal vehicles and
commercial trucks and the concomitant need for clean
fuels.In addition to the growing awareness of the human
health and environmental impact of vehicle source emissions,
have placed increasing requirements on refineries. Sulfur is
not an additive but a natural part of crude oil. Its removal
processes presents both technological and economic
challenges to refiners. However, by coming later than
Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development
(OECD) regions to ultra-low sulfur fuels, SSA refineries are
in a position to benefit from the operating experience and
process improvements obtained elsewhere in the refining industry. |
