Vapor Recovery Units | VOC Emission Control for Loading Terminals
♻️ DEC.VRU™ ♻️
As a global leader in APC (Air Pollution Control), DEC provides specialized VOC emission control solutions to capture and process fugitive emissions at truck, marine, and rail car loading terminals. The DEC.VRU™ recovers hydrocarbons during loading operations and at storage tank facilities, ensuring your operations maintain full environmental integrity while returning recovered product back into your stream.

What is a Vapor Recovery Unit? • DEC.VRU™
A Vapor Recovery Unit (VRU) is an essential industrial system engineered to capture and process hydrocarbon vapors and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) released during the loading and unloading of petroleum products at loading terminals and storage tank facilities.
Without a VRU, these displaced vapors are vented directly to the atmosphere, contributing to air pollution, greenhouse gas emissions, and regulatory non-compliance. The DEC.VRU™ intercepts this vapor stream, processes it through high-efficiency recovery stages, and returns the recovered liquid hydrocarbons to the product stream — converting a potential environmental liability into recovered commercial value.
Engineered VOC Recovery for Global Compliance • DEC.VRU™
DEC engineers advanced vapor recovery systems tailored for both large-scale industrial applications and smaller terminal operations. These units are specifically designed to meet the most stringent emission compliance requirements across the world, providing reliable technology to manage Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) effectively. By integrating high-efficiency adsorption and absorption processes, our systems turn potential environmental pollutants back into valuable liquid product. Each system is tailored to the specific regulatory requirements of the installation jurisdiction.
Loading Terminal & Storage Applications • DEC.VRU™
The DEC.VRU™ is configured to address the specific vapor generation characteristics and throughput demands of each loading terminal type.
Safety First • DEC.VRU™
Advanced safety and fire prevention, detection and suppression systems are available as options: check for our DEC.FPS™ & DEC.FSS™ process safety control modules, for fire prevention and suppression.
Layout that fits • DEC.VRU™
DEC Vapor Recovery Units (VRUs) are available in both skid modular layout (DEC.VRU_SMS™ • Smart Modular Systems, pre-built and pre-tested at our workshops) or in full customizable version (DEC.VRU_CBS™ • Custom Built Systems, with on-site erection).
