Liquid Titan Transmix Facility - Refinery in Parker, Arizona, United States

Liquid Titan Transmix Facility is a refinery situated in Parker, La Paz County, Arizona, United States. The facility is operational and classified under NAICS code 324110, which covers petroleum refineries. Its location in the southwestern U.S. places it within a region with significant oil and gas infrastructure, though Arizona itself has limited refining capacity compared to coastal states. The facility operates under the regulatory framework of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), including the Clean Air Act (CAA) Refinery Maximum Achievable Control Technology (MACT) standards and other federal environmental regulations. As a refinery, it processes crude oil or intermediate feedstocks into petroleum products, with typical operations involving distillation, cracking, and blending. Refineries in this region often serve local markets for gasoline, diesel, and other fuels. The environmental significance of this facility relates to its potential emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and hazardous air pollutants (HAPs), which are regulated under the CAA. Its inland location in Arizona reduces the risk of coastal oil spills but still requires careful management of wastewater and stormwater runoff to protect local water resources. The facility contributes to the regional fuel supply chain, supporting transportation and industrial activities in the area.

The facility is located in an arid region of Arizona, where water resources are scarce and sensitive to contamination. Refineries in such areas must manage wastewater and stormwater carefully to prevent pollution of groundwater and the Colorado River watershed. Air emissions, including sulfur dioxide and particulate matter, are regulated under the EPA's CAA Refinery MACT standards. The site's inland location reduces spill risks to marine environments but still requires robust containment and monitoring systems.
