ProAct Services Corp.’s 25-MMBtu (million British thermal units) trailer-mounted thermal oxidizer (TO) is the first of its kind to have dual modes of operation. It can be in the storage tank degassing mode, but it also meets Coast Guard requirements and can be used in barge loading operations. It is also equipped with top-of-the-line monitoring technology and safety devices.
See below for a list of features:
• Thermal combustor: Combustion chamber volume sized for 3,000 standard cubic feet per minute (scfm) of process vapors and 7,000 scfm of dilution air at 1,700 degrees F.
• Trailer-mounted.
• UL type 4 listed control panel (Allen Bradley CompactLogix).
• C-MORE 15-inch touch screen operator interface includes digital and graphic display and data logging of combustor temperature, process flow (from tank) with totalization, dilution air flow with totalization, fuel gas flow with totalization, oxygen level (from tank), process lower explosive limit (from tank), vacuum/pressure on process manifold, stack exhaust position indicating device (PID), automatic process valve position, automatic dilution air valve position and generator operating information.
• Ground continuity interlock for safety.
• Algas TX240 LP electric vaporizer.
• Low-NOx burner WX0850 (NGL and LPG) guaranteed to meet rule 1147 NOx requirement of 60 ppm or less — and proven by a third-party source test to actually fall under 20 ppm NOx, a figure practically unheard of in the industry.
• Air compressor (5 HP) for pneumatic valve operation with pressure transmitter.
• 7,000-scfm dilution air blower.
• Dilution air automatic flow control valve: pneumatic actuated, fail open.
• 3,000-scfm process blower: 60 HP with variable frequency drive control.
• Two 10-inch process block valves, firesafe to meet API 607. Both valves are pneumatic actuated, fail closed and quick closing.
• Two 10-inch detonation arrestors.
• 10-inch inline process filter with spare element.
• Knockout pot: 120 gallons with high liquid level switch.
• Lower explosive limit analyzer for tank flow.
• Oxygen analyzer for tank flow.
• Exhaust PID analyzer.
• H2S on-board monitoring.
• Inlet manifold: Two 8-inch and one 6-inch female aluminum camlock connections.
The modes of operation for this stateof the-art system include tank degassing, tank refills/refloats and the equivalent for marine vessels, all meeting Coast Guard requirements. ProAct has the dock safety unit (DSU) required for marine operations. It can be mobilized as required, and flow adjustments can be made according to each project’s needs. ProAct’s DSU and TO have robust telemetry that talk to one another continuously to make sure all stages of operations are in total compliance with safety and regulatory conditions. And according to ProAct Oxidizer and Combustion Technologies Environmental Treatment Specialist Brian Smith, “By adding the Marine Vapor Control Mode, ProAct can now respond to an even larger customer base than we already cover!
“This new product really rounds out all aspects of our customers’ needs. Not only do we continue to expand our innovative equipment solutions for environmental remediation, on-site water treatment, and industrial pipeline and tank degassing, but we now can respond with the same high-quality service to the marine vapor control sector.
“We are also excited to announce that we are expanding our fleet in 2018. By adding 10-MMBtu systems with the same Coast Guard requirements, we can combine systems for varying job requirements ranging from 1 MMBtu up to 75 MMBtu.”
