Gulf Coast Environmental Systems LLC (GCES) designs and builds custom pipeline metering skids for a wide range of fluids. The metering skids are designed for simultaneous and continuous analysis of the quality and quantity of fluid being transferred in a pipeline. These may be referred to as Lease Automatic Custody Transfer (LACT) Skids. The most common metering fluid is natural gas. Continuous analysis of the natural gas may include the following characteristics: Upper Calorific Value which is defined as the latent energy content released during combustion of the gasConcentration of Sulfur CompoundsHydrocarbon Dew Point which is the temperature at which higher hydrocarbons condense into the liquid phaseWater Dew Point which is the temperature at which water condenses outVolume and Mass Flow MeasurementCondensation formation may lead to plugging of instrumentation and damage to compressors. Water condensation in the presence of hydrocarbons can lead to corrosion as well. GCES considers these factors and designs our skids accordingly.

Gulf Coast Environmental Systems supplies a fully automatic control system designed, manufactured, and integrated into the product tailored to customer requirements. The control system consist of a GCES designed Safety Control System (SCS). The SCS system is designed to optimize performance and safety per the National Electric Code and UL508A standards.

The VAM RTO allows Gulf Coast Environmental Systems to offer a financially superior solution to VAM projects without compromising on safety or efficiency.

In a Carbon Adsorber, a contaminated process stream flows across an activated carbon bed. The carbon removes the VOCs from the process stream and absorbs them, holding them on the surface and in its pores. The VOC-free air is exhausted to atmosphere. Carbon is a great adsorber of organic materials like low molecular weight VOCs.

One of todays most widely accepted air pollution control technologies across the industry is the Carbon Adsorber. Gulf Coast Environmental Systems Carbon Adsorbers are necessary when you are trying to accomplish three things: VOC Abatement, Low NOX & Solvent Recovery. In a Carbon Adsorber, a contaminated process stream flows across an activated carbon bed. The carbon removes the VOCs from the process stream and absorbs them, holding them on the surface and in its pores. The VOC-free air is exhausted to atmosphere. Carbon is a great adsorber of organic materials like low molecular weight VOCs.

1) Adsorption and concentration of the VOCs using a hydrophobic Zeolite Rotor2) Desorption of the VOCs from the Rotor with a hot slip-stream of air3) Destruction of the concentrated VOCs by a Thermal Oxidizer A Rotor wheel is a temperature swing adsorption device, designed to continuously remove VOC from a low concentration, high volume air stream by adsorbing the VOCs onto a hydrophobic Zeolite media. After the VOCs have been collected, they are then released from the Rotor by a heated low volume air stream to be treated by the thermal oxidizer. By concentrating the VOCs into the low volume air stream, considerable energy savings, both electric and fuel gas, are achieved.

Gulf Coast Environmental Systems sets the standard for flexibility and durability with our portable thermal oxidizer systems. Providing options that meet virtually every challenge, GCES delivers the experience of a major oxidizer builder provided in a powerful small package

GCES designs and manufactures industrial ovens and furnaces tailored to your specific application within a variety of industries. Combining a collaborative approach with our engineering and manufacturing experience, each oven is custom designed to match your unique needs. Considerations include the degree of automation required by your process, temperature control accuracy, safety, material handling, life cycle cost tradeoffs (CAPEX vs OPEX), and other variables that make for a successful industrial oven project.
