Zusammenfassung:Some Members of Congress have expressed concern about storage and management of petroleum coke (petcoke) in their districts. Despite a lack of data on observed health impacts, local concerns have included potential human health and environmental impacts of fugitive dusts and runoff into waterways.

This book discusses the petcoke issues, small refinery opportunities and provides a background on the industry.
