Steel tank and Process Vent Applications & Case Studies

In order to comply with the most recent regulations, emissions from atmospheric tanks and process vents must be eliminated or minimized. TIGG provides vapor phase activated carbon filtration systems, including activated carbon adsorbers, granular activated carbon media and other system components to provide an environmental remediation solution to tank and process vent applications.

TIGG has used its experience to remove the contaminants from vapors exiting atmospheric tanks during filling operations and diurnal temperature changes. Also our equipment has been installed on a standby basis to be used when a thermal oxidizer is out of service.

Tank & Process Vents | Case Studies

---

		A major chemical plant - wanted a backup for a thermal oxidizer treating gases vented from a tank containing a light hydrocarbon product. TIGG provided two ASME Code vessels containing 2000 pounds of carbon that will treat 167 ACFM of tank emissions during tank filling when the oxidizer is offline.
In a chemical plant, TIGG provided an adsorber containing 1800 pounds of carbon to remove organics from the off gas of a scrubber which is operating inefficiently.
In a hydrocarbon processing plant, level changes in a spent caustic tank caused the release of organics to the atmosphere. TIGG provided an adsorber to remove the hydrocarbons from the air.
