VAPOR POINT MISSION
– Create GREEN TECHNOLOGY– No NOx/CO Emission – Answer to industries’ emission compliance issues when Carbon, Thermal Combustion and Flaring are not viable
- perationally and/or economically
– Provide Turn-Key Solution for Emission Compliance
- Fugitive VOC Emissions
- H2S and other hazardous compounds
- Air Monitoring and Data Logging
3
- Keys to Effectiveness
– Reaction Chamber Design – creating “Hydraulic Amalgamation” between vapor and recovery chemistry
- NOT a Traditional Scrubber
- PATENTED PROCESS FOR VAPOR RECOVERY
– Proprietary Chemistry (Modified based on Application)
- Dynamic capability [absorptive, adsorptive, solubility]
- Recyclable Chemistry
- Recoverable and Reusable Contaminate Gas
– Operational Effectiveness
- No Power Requirements (In positive pressure applications)
- No Heat Generation or Reactivity
- Ease of Mobility
- Ease of Adaptability
- No Waste Generated or Left Behind
- Can achieve 100% regulatory compliance
