Advanced solutions designed to minimise VOC emissions from storage tanks, ensuring compliance with global environmental regulations. These systems enhance sustainability by capturing or reducing vapour losses during filling, breathing, or operational cycles.
Advanced Solutions for Reducing Vapour Losses and Environmental Impact
At Prime Tank Systems, we are committed to supporting a cleaner and safer environment by combining our extensive industry experience with continuous innovation. Our emission control devices are designed to minimize product vapour losses and reduce harmful emissions from aboveground storage tanks (ASTs), supporting global efforts in environmental protection and regulatory compliance.
Through well-engineered solutions that help limit hydrocarbon vapours escaping into the atmosphere, we also contribute to long-term sustainability by enabling healthier ecosystems and reducing the carbon footprint of tank operations.
Product Range
Prime Tank Systems offers a range of emission control accessories that integrate seamlessly with internal or external floating roof tanks. Our most commonly implemented systems include:
-
Roof Support Leg Seals
Including leg tube transition seals, leg pinhole seals, and leg socks — all designed to reduce vapour loss through floating roof support legs. -
Gauge Pole Sealing Systems
Such as gauge pole well seals and pipe covers to minimize emissions through gauge and sampling access points. -
Pontoon Vapour Barriers
Inflatable pontoon bags (balloons) installed inside floating roof pontoons to block vapour migration and increase emission control efficiency.
Emission Control Solutions
Storage tanks, especially those containing volatile hydrocarbons, are prone to evaporative losses due to temperature fluctuations, pressure changes, and liquid level variations. These losses result in harmful VOC emissions, potential fire hazards, and regulatory non-compliance.
Prime Tank Systems offers engineered solutions such as pressure-vacuum relief valves, flame arrestors, conservation vents, and vapour recovery units. These devices are designed to minimize product loss and VOC emissions, while ensuring tank safety and maintaining compliance with global standards like API 2000, ISO 28300, and EU environmental directives.
Yes. All emission control systems are customizable to meet specific tank configurations, fluid properties, and local environmental regulations. Whether for retrofits or new installations, our solutions ensure long-term reliability, safety, and environmental protection.
