Abstract
The petroleum refining industry plays a significant role in the national economic activities of Bangladesh. Though, potential environmental hazards related to petroleum and petrochemical factories have caused increased concern for peoples near them. This apprises provides a general impression of the processes involved and some possible environmental contamination associated with petroleum industries. Petroleum refineries separate crude oils into different petroleum materials through a sequence of physical and chemical separation methods. The refining industry provided numerous widely used products as well as gasoline, diesel, kerosene, motor oil, asphalt, waxes, and petroleum gel. But refineries are usually considered a key source of contaminants in areas where they are located and contaminate the air, soil, water system. Pollutant releases from the petroleum refineries occur in every stage of the oil-producing procedure from the extraction to the consumption chain. Now a day, due to vast environmental contamination it is crucially needed to find out of alternative cleaner energy sources rather than liquid petroleum. Bangladesh, a highly populated country and have no sufficient ability to tackle any natural and anthropogenic pollution. So, the environmental impact of petroleum refinery emission in Bangladesh is a serious concern to the government and environmentalists.
