VCU System
vapor combustion unit
Introduction/What is it
Vapor Combustion Unit is a high-efficiency thermal oxidation system specially designed for the safe treatment of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and combustible waste gases generated during industrial processes. It converts hazardous gases into harmless carbon dioxide and water vapor through high-temperature combustion, achieving efficient emission control and environmental compliance.
It is widely used in petrochemical, pharmaceutical, coating, and waste gas treatment industries, providing a reliable and energy-saving solution for the destruction of VOCs, vent gases, and other flammable vapors. The system ensures stable, smokeless, and low-NOx operation, making it an essential component of modern flare and vapor control systems.
theory
Vapor Combustion Unit is based on the fundamental principles of thermal oxidation and combustion control. It is designed to safely and efficiently oxidize VOCs and combustible gases generated during industrial processes, converting them into harmless CO₂ and H₂O through high-temperature combustion. This process effectively prevents direct release of pollutants, reduces greenhouse gas emissions, and enhances overall environmental compliance.
The system consists of a combustion chamber, pilot ignition system, flame arrestors, and air/fuel control modules, ensuring stable and complete oxidation under fluctuating flow and concentration conditions. Typically installed in refineries, storage terminals, and chemical plants, the VCU achieves destruction efficiency exceeding 99.5%, while maintaining low NOₓ and CO emissions.
Its core function is to maintain pressure relief and emission safety without visible smoke or flame. Compared to conventional flare systems, the enclosed combustion design provides smokeless, quiet, and energy-efficient operation, with advanced burner controls ensuring precise air-to-fuel ratios for optimized combustion.
This system is widely used in petrochemical, pharmaceutical, coating, and VOC treatment applications, providing a reliable, low-emission solution for green and sustainable vapor disposal.
