The US EPA has determined that leaking equipment, such as valves, pumps, and connectors, are the largest source of emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and volatile hazardous air pollutants (VHAPs) from petroleum refineries and chemical manufacturing facilities.
Detecting every methane leak in a Biogas plant is very important because any quantity of gas going to the atmosphere is lost revenue, since it is not injected in the gas network or used to produce electricity. Reducing gas emission is also important to continue considering this industry as “green”.
Due to the quantity of material hold in each tank, a potential leak from a vent or from a floating roof seal can quickly become huge… and catastrophic if hit by lightning. Tank farms are the best location to use our OGI fixed camera GasViewer GV-F-714 or GV-F-3234 due to the size of the area to be monitored. We can provide you with a full turnkey solution including solar panel power supply and wireless data transmission to avoid digging tranches in such large areas, from the cameras to the control room. Should you decide to monitor only the potential fire, then our FlamViewer FV-F-17 could help you to detect a 1 m2 fire up to 2 km away.
SF6 is used in this industry as insulation gas in high voltage circuit breakers. But SF6 is very dangerous for the ozone layer, every kilogram of emitted SF6 has the same impact on global warming than 22 800 kg of CO2 and its life span in the atmosphere reaches 3200 years vs 100 for the CO2. To reduce its footprint, we can help you detect it with our portable OGI camera GasViewer GV-P-714, for purchase or as service (LDAR) or installed a fixed camera GasViewer GV-F-714 or GV-F-3234.
