Adtech offers degassing unit through a variety of proven technologies. Our staff is trained and experienced in applying cutting-edge technologies to ensure our clients' emissions challenges are met with emphasis on safety and compliance. Based on customer project specifics, including tank size and product type, GEM’s equipment diversity brings unique project efficiencies by applying the properly sized unit to a tank or pipeline. GEM operates a diverse fleet of Mobile Vapor Combustion Units ranging in size from 1.5 MM BTU to 42 MM BTU and can handle various vapor flow rates up to 3,000 SCFM. (Request Equipment Specification Sheets) By offering the broadest range of vapor combustor sizes, GEM has the ability to handle low-flow passive vapor control needs or specialty high-flow vapor destruction, typical for large product or crude tanks. And whether it’s vapor combustion, liquid vapor scrubbing, or carbon absorption, GEM has the appropriate solution.
Vapor Scrubbing & Odor Control
GEM provides liquid scrubbing solutions to enhance carbon vapor control systems. GEM utilizes specialized chemistry to control VOCs, proprietary caustic solution to scrub H2S, and acid to remove ammonia from vapor streams. Frequent carbon burnout is often an issue for vacuum truck exhaust during turnarounds, tank cleaning and pipeline suction projects involving crude oil and gasoline or other light-ends. Combining a liquid scrubber with activated carbon will prevent the need for frequent stoppages to replace spent carbon, as well as reduce spikes in vapor concentrations, which can quickly raise the temperature of carbon to dangerous levels.Our in-house equipment has flow capacity of up to 500 SCFM. We offer single vessel, combination vessel, and a number of specialty packed scrubbers. (Request Equipment Specification Sheets)
Similarly, GEM’s combination of carbon with liquid scrubbing is sometimes the most cost-effective approach for controlling vapors generated by sludge processing operations, barges, tankers, and API separators. degassing units
