Life Cycle Assessment of Carbon Emission from Natural Gas

Seyed Ali

With the deterioration of world climate and surroundings, the carbon emission of the oil and gas trade has been a crucial issue of world concern. At present, there’s an absence of systematic analysis on carbon emission calculation of fossil fuel pipeline from construction to disposal we have a tendency to propose a life cycle assessment technique for fossil fuel pipeline so as to quantify the carbon emissions from construction to disposal. The carbon emissions of fossil fuel pipeline square measure divided into four elements during this model: producing, construction, operation, and exercise. For every of the four stages, carbon emissions from material production and construction, facility construction and instrumentation operation square measure all detailed calculated additionally, methane, the most element of fossil fuel, features a non-negligible impact on the atmosphere. Therefore, gas run from the pipeline system is additionally thought-about during this paper. And knowledge from actual pipelines square measure utilised within the case study. The results show that the carbon emissions of those pipelines square measure within the vary of 26 power emission issue, and mechanical device operation standing end up to be the most factors poignant carbon emission. With the institution of this model, potential carbon emission of planned pipelines may be calculable, that has guiding significance for future pipeline construction.
