Oil refineries, therefore, are often located nearby navigable rivers or on a seashore, nearby a port. Such location also gives access to transportation by river or by sea. The advantages of transporting crude oil by pipeline are evident, and oil companies often transport a large volume of fuel to distribution terminals by pipeline. A pipeline may not be practical for products with small output, and railcars, road tankers, and barges are used. </p><p>Petrochemical plants and solvent manufacturing (fine fractionating) plants need spaces for further processing of a large volume of refinery products, or to mix chemical additives with a product at source rather than at blending terminals. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Safety_and_environment">Safety and environment</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Oil_refinery&amp;action=edit&amp;section=9" title="Edit section: Safety and environment"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:BP_PLANT_EXPLOSION-1_lowres2.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/71/BP_PLANT_EXPLOSION-1_lowres2.jpg/220px-BP_PLANT_EXPLOSION-1_lowres2.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="146" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/71/BP_PLANT_EXPLOSION-1_lowres2.jpg/330px-BP_PLANT_EXPLOSION-1_lowres2.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/71/BP_PLANT_EXPLOSION-1_lowres2.jpg/440px-BP_PLANT_EXPLOSION-1_lowres2.jpg 2x" data-file-width="504" data-file-height="334" /></a><figcaption>Fire-extinguishing operations after the <a href="/wiki/Texas_City_refinery_explosion" title="Texas City refinery explosion">Texas City refinery explosion</a></figcaption></figure> <p>The refining process releases a number of different chemicals into the <a href="/wiki/Earth%27s_atmosphere" class="mw-redirect" title="Earth&#39;s atmosphere">atmosphere</a> (see <a href="/wiki/AP_42_Compilation_of_Air_Pollutant_Emission_Factors" title="AP 42 Compilation of Air Pollutant Emission Factors">AP 42 Compilation of Air Pollutant Emission Factors</a>) and a notable <a href="/wiki/Odor" title="Odor">odor</a> normally accompanies the presence of a refinery.

These are primarily saved for the most problematic areas where extremely high temperatures and/or very corrosive chemicals are present.<sup id="cite_ref-130" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-130"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>130<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>Corrosion is fought by a complex system of monitoring, preventative repairs, and careful use of materials. Monitoring methods include both offline checks taken during maintenance and online monitoring. Offline checks measure corrosion after it has occurred, telling the engineer when equipment must be replaced based on the historical information they have collected. This is referred to as preventative management. </p><p>Online systems are a more modern development and are revolutionizing the way corrosion is approached. There are several types of online corrosion monitoring technologies such as linear polarization resistance, <a href="/wiki/Electrochemical_noise" title="Electrochemical noise">electrochemical noise</a> and electrical resistance. Online monitoring has generally had slow reporting rates in the past (minutes or hours) and been limited by process conditions and sources of error but newer technologies can report rates up to twice per minute with much higher accuracy (referred to as real-time monitoring). This allows process engineers to treat corrosion as another process variable that can be optimized in the system. Immediate responses to process changes allow the control of corrosion mechanisms, so they can be minimized while also maximizing production output.<sup id="cite_ref-:6_120-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:6-120"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>120<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> In an ideal situation having on-line corrosion information that is accurate and real-time will allow conditions that cause high corrosion rates to be identified and reduced. This is known as predictive management. </p><p>Materials methods include selecting the proper material for the application. In areas of minimal corrosion, cheap materials are preferable, but when bad corrosion can occur, more expensive but longer-lasting materials should be used. Other materials methods come in the form of protective barriers between corrosive substances and the equipment metals. These can be either a lining of refractory material such as standard <a href="/wiki/Portland_cement" title="Portland cement">Portland cement</a> or other special acid-resistant cement that is shot onto the inner surface of the vessel. Also available are thin overlays of more expensive metals that protect cheaper metal against corrosion without requiring much material.<sup id="cite_ref-131" class="reference"><a
