Vapour Recovery Units Market Opportunities and Emerging Technologies in 2025
Government mandates worldwide are increasingly driving the adoption of vapor recovery technologies. In the United States, the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) updated regulations NESHAP Subpart R and NSPS Subpart XXa require new bulk gasoline terminals and storage facilities to maintain total organic compound (TOC) emissions below 550 ppm in vent streams.
These rules enforce strict monitoring, often through Continuous Emissions Monitoring Systems (CEMS), and compel operators to install and maintain advanced vapor recovery units (VRUs) to ensure compliance. Failure to meet these standards can result in significant penalties, incentivizing investments in emission control infrastructure.
