The GPL Odorizer is Different! |
|
GPL Odorizers does one thing, and we take it seriously. We design and manufacture premium odorant injection units to odorize natural gas, propane, and biogas safely.
Unlike other odorant injection systems, our models do not use pipeline gas to actuate the system. Our equipment does not discharge gas, nor odorant, making our models eco-friendly. There is no smell during regular operation or even maintenance because our systems have a clean, sealed, and ventless design, which naturally lowers false leak-call complaints. We utilize advanced technology that saves time and money through remote monitoring, real-time mobile alerts, and efficient reporting. Our systems are accurate and reliable over a wide range of flow including problematic no-flow, ultra-low-flow, and intermittent-flow systems. Our simple designs are cost-effective, competitively priced and easy to maintain and operate. Our two products offer precise odorization for most applications:
Mercaptan Natural Gas Odor InjectionNatural gas by itself is odorless. In 1937 over 200 women, children, and men died when un-odorized natural gas ignited in a London Texas school. This disaster was the impetus for the regulations to add odor to natural gas so that any person would detect it when having a “normal” sense of smell. An odorizer is a machine that injects the odorant into natural gas so that it is detectable to improve safety. The regulation requires that the odor be detected when the gas is present at one-fifth of the lower explosive limit. Over the years, countless studies have revealed that mercaptans, which are a class of organosulfur compounds, are the ideal chemicals to odorize natural gas. The chemical offers a repulsive, rotten egg smell that is readily detectable at unusually low concentrations.
GPL does not manufacture odorants. We design systems to odorize natural gas, propane, and biogas. |
