This panel will provide a general overview of the refining industry from a variety of perspectives. This session is proposed to feature speakers who can explain refinery processes and share some of the air and waste issues they deal with. The panel will be geared towards young professionals and will highlight air, water, and waste topics across a multitude of local, state, and federal regulations. The panel will conclude with open discussions and Q&A which will provide students and YPs to interact with the panel members.
This is a great introductory panel presentation for all attendees but is focused on reaching the student/young professional attendee. The attendee should walk away with a general understanding of each industry discussed and the environmental challenges each faces.
