Revolutionizing Loading Dock Degassing for Logistics Efficiency

Faster & Cost-Effective Container Degassing with ASPRA L-C Mobile

Cutting Degas Time from Weeks to Hours with ASPRA Technology

In logistics, container degassing is a time-consuming and costly process, often requiring external companies and delaying shipments. Containers containing harmful gases need to be degassed before storage, but traditional methods take 1–1.5 weeks, affecting both costs and efficiency.

To solve this, VFA Solutions implemented the ASPRA L-C Mobile air purifier, combined with vFAN air circulation technology, significantly reducing degassing time to just a few hours. This on-site degassing solution eliminates harmful gases and odors, streamlining logistics operations while reducing costs.

About the Project

One of the biggest challenges in container logistics is the time required for degassing. Containers used for transporting goods often contain harmful gases that must be eliminated before warehousing and further distribution. Traditionally, this process takes up to 1–1.5 weeks, impacting logistics timelines and sometimes requiring costly external companies to complete the degassing process.

To address this issue, VFA Solutions provided an advanced degassing system, featuring the ASPRA L-C Mobile air purifier combined with a custom vFAN ventilation system. This setup allows containers to be degassed on-site in just a few hours, reducing operational costs while preventing moisture-related damage to goods. The result? Faster transport, reduced expenses, and improved efficiency for logistics companies.

Detailed Approach

Problem Description

A logistics company faced serious delays due to lengthy container degassing processes. Harmful gases needed to be removed before storing shipments, but traditional degassing methods were slow and costly, taking 1–1.5 weeks to complete.

In some cases, when natural degassing by opening containers wasn’t sufficient, external services had to be hired, adding significant operational expenses. Additionally, moisture damage sometimes impacted goods during the long degassing periods, creating additional logistical challenges.

The Solution

To accelerate container degassing and reduce costs, VFA Solutions installed the ASPRA L-C Mobile air purifier alongside a custom vFAN ventilation system. This setup allowed for fast, controlled degassing at the loading dock, significantly shortening processing time.

The ASPRA L-C Mobile removes harmful gases and unwanted odors, while the vFAN ensures efficient air circulation inside the container. This innovative approach eliminated the need for external degassing companies, enabling on-site degassing in just a few hours.

The Result

Thanks to VFA Solutions' degassing system, container degassing time was cut from 1–1.5 weeks to just a few hours. Logistics companies saved costs, avoided delays, and ensured faster transport of shipments.

Additionally, the ASPRA L-C Mobile provided effective gas removal, ensuring a safer and healthier working environment. The new system’s efficiency and sustainability made it an ideal long-term solution for streamlining logistics operations.
