Vapor Blasting is known as liquid/vapor honing or wet blasting. It is a process using water as a carrier of the media or grit to produce a soft slurry action rather than an aggressive dry action. Used in cleaning operations, it's a finishing process for final inspection. This process does not change the dimensions of the part, but rather disguises scratches and eliminates minimum surface imperfections. It is similar to bead blasting using air and water mix to give the ultimate blast finish to all non ferrous metals and stainless steel.

Vapor compression evaporation process is generally used for small scale desalting units. The heat for evaporating the water comes from the heat resulting from compressing the vapor rather than the direct exchange of heat from steam. The vapor compression evaporation process is also designed to take advantage of the principle of reducing the boiling point temperature by reducing the process pressure. The primary method used to produce heat to evaporate incoming feed water is a mechanical compressor. The mechanical compressor is usually electrically driven, which eliminates the need to obtain or generate steam. The mechanical compressor creates a vacuum in the vessel and compresses vapor removed from the vessel. As vapor leaves the vessel, it condenses on the inside of the heated tube bundle, where it boils and partially evaporates, producing more vapor.

A vapor control combustion unit is an efficient method of controlling vapors from the handling, storage, or loading of volatile liquid hydrocarbons when recovery of the vapors is not a viable option. It is an alternative to recovery; hydrocarbon vapors may be destroyed in a flare, combustor or incinerator. A combustor is a device that utilizes modified flare technology. A flare is a device that is designed to process hydrocarbon vapors that contain little or no air. Vapor combustors, on the other hand, are designed to safely burn vapor mixtures consisting of hydrocarbons and air. Sometimes this mixture may be within the flammable range of the vapors being destroyed. An incinerator is an enclosed combustion device and has much more sophisticated controls than either the flare or combustor. It is an open type, where the flame is elevated and visible; or as an enclosed type, where the flame is generally near grade level and enclosed in an insulated combustion chamber or stack.

Vapour Degreasing provides adequate space for effective cleaning. It also allows sufficient contact with the solvent to remove soils and capability to recycle the solvent for extended use. It is commonly designed with larger condensers to minimize solvent loss and prevent vapour contamination of the air in the work area.
