Fugitive emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) are of particular concern to the processing industries, notably chemicals and hydrocarbons. It has been estimated that these industries account for half of all fugitive emissions, and 60% of these emissions are the result of valve stem leaks. Effectively containing these emissions can yield significant operational and economic benefits beyond avoidance of punitive penalties for non-compliance with regulatory standards. Reducing emissions increases productivity and profitability, while creating a safer, healthier workplace.
