This is just one of the many terminal construction projects we have successfully performed. If you would like more information on our full breadth of experience and expertise, please reach out to our team today.
A major terminal operator turned to us to install a thermal oxidizer system aimed at controlling volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions. The project required a retrofit of existing infrastructure to meet new environmental compliance mandates.
The primary goal of this thermal oxidizer construction in Texas was to install VOC capture and destruction equipment (thermal oxidizer) to substantially reduce VOC emissions to the atmosphere. This project included modification of a tank farm, truck rack, warehouse, and rail spurs in addition to the installation of a thermal oxidizer, bladder tanks, and all associated equipment, piping, and instrumentation.
The client needed our expertise to retrofit their storage tank farm to add a VOC capture and thermal oxidation system in order to meet a consent decree. The schedules for multiple client-procured major equipment items were critical path elements for construction.
Existing tanks and structures surrounding the tanks made the installation challenging. To ensure the timeline was met, design modifications and consultations with the designer of record and H+M’s engineering resources were required. Major equipment delivery timelines were tied to construction and therefore needed to be managed carefully.
The outcomes of the Texas thermal oxidizer construction project included the following:
