ZEVAC Ventless Purge on a New Pipeline
ZEVAC closed-loop technology was used to purge a 12" diameter new construction pipeline.
Learn how ZEVAC cross compression was used as a ventless purge on a five mile section of new construction pipeline. With compressed air as a vacuum, a -9.1 water column registered on the pipeline. Pipeline feed gas was introduced into the system the next day.
ZEVAC technology uses compressed air to eliminate emissions, supporting safety and environmental regulations for methane reduction. The pneumatic (air) powered and controlled technology eliminates the noise, permits, notifications, hazards, and difficulties of venting and flaring.
