Storage Tank Emission
Ammonia scrubbers for storage tank emissions are designed to control and reduce ammonia gas emissions from storage tanks that contain ammonia or ammonia-based compounds. These emissions can arise from the volatilization of ammonia during storage and handling, especially in industries such as fertilizer production, chemical manufacturing, and wastewater treatment. Scrubbing systems are employed to capture and neutralize the ammonia in the air, ensuring compliance with environmental regulations and reducing the impact on surrounding communities and the environment.
Ammonia scrubbers for storage tank emissions typically utilize a scrubbing liquid (such as water or specialized chemical solutions) to absorb and neutralize the ammonia. The systems are designed to handle the fluctuating levels of ammonia emissions depending on the volume of ammonia stored, temperature variations, and handling practices.
With features like efficient gas-liquid contact, automatic pH control, and continuous monitoring, ammonia scrubbers ensure that emissions are effectively reduced to safe levels. By capturing ammonia at the source, these scrubbers not only help industries meet regulatory requirements but also contribute to safer working environments and reduced environmental impact.

Features of Ammonia Scrubbers
- Can handle air flow rate from 100 to 30,000 CFM
- Removal method is Absorption / Chemisorption
- Material of Construction: PP, FRP, PP+FRP, MS+FRP, SS 304, SS 316
- High efficiency Tellerette®Tower Packing removes soluble/reactive gases, solid particulate and liquid droplets down to 7 microns
- Lower shell serves as integral sump for recycle of liquid
How Our Ammonia Scrubber Works
- Gas Flow Entry: Ammonia-laden air enters the scrubber and is directed towards the scrubbing liquid for treatment.
- Absorption Process: The scrubbing liquid absorbs ammonia from the air, reducing its concentration.
- Chemical Reaction: Ammonia may react with the scrubbing solution, forming ammonium salts that are removed.
- Packed Bed Design: Packing materials like plastic or ceramic media increase gas-liquid contact, ensuring efficient ammonia absorption.

frequently questioned answers
What are storage tank emissions?
Storage tank emissions refer to the release of volatile substances, such as ammonia or volatile organic compounds (VOCs), into the air from storage tanks containing chemicals, liquids, or gases.
What causes ammonia emissions in storage tanks?
Ammonia emissions are often caused by the breakdown of organic materials or the presence of ammonia-based chemicals in the tank, which vaporize and escape into the air.
How can storage tank emissions be controlled?
Emissions can be controlled using various methods, such as ammonia scrubbers, vapor recovery systems, or active venting systems, depending on the type of emissions and the regulatory requirements.
Why is it important to control storage tank emissions?
Controlling emissions helps reduce environmental pollution, prevent health hazards, and ensure compliance with environmental regulations.
What are the environmental impacts of uncontrolled storage tank emissions?
Uncontrolled emissions can contribute to air pollution, negatively impact air quality, and contribute to climate change by releasing greenhouse gases or toxic substances into the atmosphere.
How can I ensure my storage tank complies with emission regulations?
To comply with emission regulations, it is important to implement appropriate emission control systems, conduct regular maintenance and monitoring, and ensure adherence to local and international environmental standards.
