ETS Degassing GmbH services

ETS Degassing's mobile nitrogen vaporizers are crucial for handling components containing flammable liquids and gases by providing a safe environment through inerting and flushing processes using nitrogen gas. This service is vital for maintaining pipelines, tanks, ships, and large containers by minimizing the risk of explosion inherent in working with materials such as ammonia, hydrogen, or butane. The vaporizers help stabilize volatile environments by preventing unwanted chemical reactions like oxidation. Moreover, they can be paired with vapor combustion units to efficiently degas vessels loaded with hazardous materials such as propylene. ETS Degassing is committed to advancing emission reduction technologies, fueled by their recognition as an innovative mid-sized company. Their fleet's versatile applications extend to emergency situations, like managing derailed tank wagons carrying propane, thereby demonstrating ETS Degassing's pivotal role in safe, efficient industrial operations.

ETS Degassing operates a bargedegrading facility located in the Port of Duisburg, which is recognized as the world's largest inland port. This facility provides a permanent solution for the environmentally-friendly degassing and purging of inland vessels, barges, and tankers. Prior to its establishment, vessels in Germany had to travel to the Netherlands for compliant gas disposal. Now, the Duisburg site accommodates ships up to 135 meters in length, addressing ADN compliance and fostering reduced emissions in a key logistics hub. The facility, covering approximately 4,000 m2, adheres to ADN guidelines and is certified under DIN ISO 45001/9001/14001 standards. Equipped with nitrogen vaporizers, it allows for purging and inert rendering as needed. This site addresses a critical gap in Germany, offering treatment for product classes IIA, IIB, and IIC, ensuring safety without open flames or odors. This progressive development secures Duisburg's position as a leader in sustainable and compliant maritime operations.
