Case Studies

Client: Petroleum Refinery

Location: Central California

Project Summary

GEM MTS assisted a sludge processing contractor at a Central California refinery with a cost-saving vapor control solution. Over a three-week period, GEM MTS 's scrubber systems utilized approximately one third the quantity of carbon that the contractor and customer expected to spend. In addition to cost savings, the operator of the manned scrubber ensured a high-standard of safety with respect to monitoring temperature and vapor scrubbing efficiency.

Vapor Source(s): Crude Oil, Hydrocarbon Sludge, Wastewater

Equipment Used: Liquid Scrubber + Blower

Cost Benefits: Overall 50% reduction in cost

Advantage: More cost-effective and safer than carbon alone.
