ETS Degassing
About us
ETS Degassing GmbH provides advanced mobile solutions for safe, clean and efficient emission treatment. Our fully equipped, remotely operated vapor combustion units enable sustainable degassing of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and hazardous air pollutants (HAPs), with destruction efficiencies exceeding 99.99% for all relevant explosion groups (IIA, IIB, IIC).
Our scalable combustion systems range from 0.1 to 50 MW and have been deployed in more than 3,000 projects worldwide. Additionally, we offer certified ATEX Zone 0 robotic systems for remote-controlled cleaning of industrial storage tanks – particularly in the chemical, petrochemical, fertilizer and food industries.
ETS Degassing stands for reliable, compliant and future-ready emission reduction – practical, flexible, and always with a strong focus on safety and environmental responsibility.

ATEX Zone 0 Roboter
At ETS Degassing, the safety of personnel and the protection of the environment are always central to our work. To further strengthen safe industrial operations, we offer another innovative solution: the ATEX Zone 0 tank-cleaning robot for hazardous confined spaces. This high-performance system is remotely operated, allowing tank cleaning to be carried out from a safe distance. With this approach, no one needs to enter ATEX Zone 0 environments, where even with full protective equipment significant health and safety risks remain. The ATEX Zone 0 robot delivers continuous, precise and reliable cleaning performance around the clock. It works quickly, does not fatigue and maintains consistent quality 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Traditionally, manual tank cleaning required four shifts of three operators each, equipped with costly PPE and exposed to serious hazards. With the ATEX Zone 0 robotic solution, this risk is eliminated. The result is safer operations, reduced shutdown duration, greater efficiency and fully compliant tank-cleaning processes without exposing personnel to dangerous atmospheres.
Mobile Combustion unit 5MW trailer
For more than 17 years, ETS Degassing has delivered technologically unique solutions for the fast and cost-efficient combustion of gases, gas mixtures and vapours from explosion groups IIA, IIB and IIC. Our systems oxidise hydrocarbons, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) with a destruction efficiency above 99.99 percent. The process operates without an open flame, odour or visible emissions. Thanks to our compact design and operating concept, we can determine CO₂ impact directly on site, a capability that sets us apart from conventional technologies and makes us a one-of-a-kind provider in Europe. In 2008, we developed the global industry’s first mobile combustion unit, enabling mobile degassing for the very first time. Since then, innovation has remained at the core of our mission. We continue to evolve our technologies and processes to offer our customers the most advanced and effective solutions for emission reduction and safe industrial degassing.
Flying Combustor 4 MW - plug & play
We design, manufacture and operate our own mobile combustion units for industrial degassing. These high-performance thermal oxidation systems can be deployed for individual applications, as temporary replacement units for VRUs, flares and vapour recovery systems, or as an interim solution during maintenance and turnaround activities. They also ensure fast response capability for unplanned incidents and emergency situations. Our technology provides a key advantage: while adsorption and absorption systems cannot directly measure or determine CO₂ impact, ETS Degassing units allow transparent tracking and documentation of carbon emissions. This ensures maximum environmental accountability and compliance. Operation of the system is carried out exclusively by our trained field operators, allowing customers to focus on their core processes without additional workload. No liquid or solid waste is generated during degassing, making the solution clean, controlled and safe. We deliver qualified personnel, a transparent operating process and the highest quality standards in the market, saving our clients both time and costs. For short-term as well as long-term projects, our mobile units are available for rental. On request, they can be supplied as an “all-in-one” package including auxiliary equipment such as power generators, support gas supply, hoses and connection piping. This combination of proprietary technology, operational expertise and flexible deployment capability makes ETS Degassing the benchmark for safe, efficient and fully accountable industrial degassing.
Mobile N2 Services
ChatGPT:We operate a fleet of mobile nitrogen vaporizers with integrated nitrogen tanks, enabling safe work on systems containing flammable liquids and gases. By flushing and inerting vessels with nitrogen, we create a controlled, oxygen-free environment that eliminates ignition risks and allows maintenance and inspection activities to take place safely. ETS Degassing nitrogen services support maintenance and shutdown operations across pipelines, tanks, ships, spheres and large industrial vessels, as well as degassing of gas spheres, gas carriers and gas containers. The mobility and high performance of our equipment make it suitable for planned projects, emergency deployments, incidents and turnaround periods. Compared to conventional media, liquefied gases under pressure such as ammonia, hydrogen or butane are more complex to handle due to their high flammability and associated explosion risks. Nitrogen, as an inert gas that does not react with other substances, is the safest method to neutralise these risks. By inerting and flushing, we ensure vessels can be safely emptied, vented and prepared for further work. Once pipelines, tanks or similar assets have been purged and emptied, they can be inspected, cleaned, repaired or maintained without exposing personnel or assets to hazardous atmospheres. With rapid mobilisation, specialised equipment and trained field teams, ETS Degassing provides reliable nitrogen services for critical industrial operations, ensuring safety, operational continuity and environmental protection.
