Our 250,000-square-foot vertically integrated manufacturing facility, strategically located near Houston, Texas, enables us to provide high-performance industrial systems for:

• LNG Liquefaction and Processing – Advanced heating and emissions control systems for cryogenic gas processing.
• Gas Pre-Treatment & Dehydration – VOC and moisture removal solutions to optimize LNG purity.
• LNG Transport & Storage Facilities – Thermal processing and air pollution control solutions for tanker terminals and storage tanks.
• Regasification and Distribution – Safe, energy-efficient solutions for converting LNG back to its gaseous state.

Custom-Engineered LNG Process Solutions

Epcon specializes in high-performance industrial systems designed to enhance efficiency, ensure environmental compliance, and reduce operational costs in LNG processing.

Thermal Oxidizers for LNG VOC & Methane Emissions Control

LNG operations generate volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and methane emissions, requiring advanced destruction and control technologies. Epcon offers:

• Regenerative Thermal Oxidizers (RTOs): High-efficiency destruction of VOCs from LNG pre-treatment and liquefaction.
• Direct-Fired Thermal Oxidizers (DFTOs): Compact, high-temperature systems for hydrocarbon-rich vent streams.
• Recuperative Thermal Oxidizers: Energy-efficient VOC abatement with integrated heat exchangers.

Waste Heat Recovery & Energy Optimization for LNG Facilities

LNG production is energy-intensive, and optimizing heat utilization is essential for reducing fuel consumption and operational costs. Epcon’s patented heat recovery systems include:

• Waste Heat Boilers & Heat Exchangers Systems: Reclaiming heat from exhaust gases for improved plant efficiency.
• Integrated Oven/Oxidizer Systems: Advanced thermal processing for minimizing fuel use while maintaining performance.
• Cogeneration & Steam Recovery: Custom-designed solutions for reducing energy waste in LNG terminals and regasification plants.

Air Pollution Control System for LNG Terminals & Storage Tanks

Epcon designs and installs custom air pollution control systems to mitigate emissions from LNG handling, including:

• Methane (CH₄) Control: Capture and combustion of fugitive methane emissions from liquefaction and storage.
• Nitrogen Oxides (NOₓ) & Sulfur Oxides (SOₓ) Treatment: Flue gas reduction solutions to comply with environmental regulations.
• Cryogenic Tank Venting & Vapor Recovery: Safe and efficient solutions for LNG storage facilities and transfer terminals.
