Abstract :
In This paper SO2, CO and NO2 emissions values were estimated in one gas sweetening plant in Iran by EPA and CAPP emission factors. The results showed that SO2 was main pollutant gas in gas sweetening plant. Near to 100% of this gas was emitted from acid gas flare. Just 2.2% of NO2 and 9% of CO were emitted from gas flares and reminding was emitted from boilers. For this study activity base emission factors for SO2, CO and NO2 were determined 84.2, 110.6 and 54894 g/t feed respectively.
