Terminal vapor recovery, a widely-applied technology for emission control on vapors of gasoline and other fuels at terminals, can effectively reduce the VOCs (volatile organic compounds) during the cargo loading procedure of oil tankers. This paper aims to provide a systematic analysis of the current situation and main issues of vapor recovery technology, proposals of basic principles, general strategies and specific tasks and programs for the promotion of the technology, as well as a reference for decision-making on the further development of terminal vapor recovery system in China.
