For over half a century, floating roof seal assemblies have been, at most, an afterthought. Very little consideration was given to how a seal would function, and even less given to actual emission control. Little thought was given to product compatibility, tank conditions, shell deformations and tank cycling. As long as the gap between the floating roof and tank shell was bridged with a device of some sort, the tank was deemed operational, giving a false sense of safe operation and emission control. The typical seal system installed on steel floating roofs has remained consistent for the past 30+ years. […]

NevadaNano: Clearing The Air

Find out how NevadaNano’s automated emission detection solution is providing real-time data and boosting operational efficiency As the oil, gas, chemicals, and renewables industries continue to focus on reducing their environmental impact, leak detection and emissions control have become essential aspects of operational efficiency. In the face of increasing regulatory requirements, terminal operators and facility managers must balance production goals with efficient and accurate emissions control. The need for real-time data is urgent, as delayed detection of methane and hydrogen leaks can result in costly fines, increased safety risks, and operational inefficiencies. NevadaNano’s automated continuous emissions monitoring system, designed for real-time […]
