Integrated Compliance and Control Technology Research Activities for in Situ Fossil Fuel Processing Experiments

摘要

There are federal and state regulations on surface and subsurface water pollution. Emerging in situ fossil fuel technologies must be cognizant of these and develop process water control measures to insure compliance. Compliance with regulations must also be met at federally operated field facilities conducting in situ process development research. At the same time, such field facilities offer prime opportunities for researching, developing, and demonstrating process water control technology applicable to an emerging industry. This paper has illustrated the approach in effect at the Laramie Energy Technology Center to use in house field activities for advancement of process water control technology while insuring compliance with regulations.
