All Gas Detection and Vapor Recovery

Devices that detect hazardous gases or capture fuel vapors before they escape, including gas detectors, explosimeters and vapor recovery units. A technology belongs here when its cited article describes such a device. These devices protect plants and the air around them in two ways, by warning when a combustible or toxic gas is present and by capturing the vapors of gasoline and other fuels during storage and loading. A device is placed here by the gas detection or vapor capture role the cited article describes.
