STAGE 1 VAPOUR RECOVERY (OR VR1)
Implementation of VR1 requires the modification of the fuel storage system to create a vacuum so that fuel vapours that exist in the underground storage tanks are drawn into the fuel tanker during the fuel delivery process at the fuel retail outlet.
​
This two-stage process effectively ensures the transfer of fuel vapours from the underground storage tanks of fuel retail outlets to fuel terminals and depots, & subsequently returned to its liquid state for resale. In theory, an effective VR1 system should result in recapture of fuel product that would normally be lost to atmosphere.
STAGE 2 VAPOUR RECOVERY (OR VR2)
Here, the Vapour Recovery involves the capture of vapours from customer refueling operation on the forecourt of retail outlets.
​
This process involves the capture of vapours through the pump nozzle via the modification of fuel dispensing infrastructure to create a vacuum that draws the fuel vapour back down into the underground storage tanks at the service station (these vapours are subsequently transferred to the fuel terminal/depot using VR1 processes).
