ABSTRACT:
An integrated vapor recovery system is provided in which the absorption oil used is withdrawn from the tank saturated with the vapors. The absorption oil is then chilled to about 35.degree. to 40 .degree. F. to produce a lean oil for the absorption column. The absorption column is operated at substantially or below atmospheric pressure, such that the vapors are recovered substantially by absorption alone with very little condensation. The lower pressures also reduce the likelihoods of explosive mixtures.
