Vapor Combustor Units (VCUs)

Malco fabricates high-performance vapor combustor units for emissions control in oil, gas, chemical, and power environments. Each unit is custom-built to spec, fully assembled in-house, and delivered with the speed and responsiveness your project demands.

As a single-source fabrication partner, we eliminate delays, reduce complexity, and deliver industrial combustion systems engineered for performance, compliance, and fast-turn deployment across North America.

Built for Vapor Control and Compliance

Vapor combustor units (VCUs) are enclosed combustion systems that destroy volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and hazardous air pollutants from storage tanks, loading operations, and industrial processes. They offer smokeless, high-efficiency vapor destruction while meeting strict air quality regulations.

Applications include:

• Truck, railcar, and marine vessel loading
• Tank venting at terminals and refineries
• Pipeline blowdowns and degassing
• Chemical and emissions-intensive production

Malco fabricates VCUs to support these critical applications. Our responsive, high-integrity fabrication keeps you compliant and operational.

Custom Fabrication for High-Stakes Environments

VCUs are never one-size-fits-all. Malco builds each unit to your exact system specs, emissions needs, and site requirements. From steel forming to electrical wiring, every component is built in-house with precision.

Capabilities include:

• Rolling, cutting, forming, welding, machining
• Sandblasting and industrial-grade coating
• Electrical wiring, burner accessory integration
• Complete assembly and packaging for shipment

Our 20-acre facility in Creek County, Oklahoma includes 40 feet under hook and a 175-foot-long fabrication bay. Most VCUs are fabricated horizontally and range from 40 to 120 feet in length, with some extending even longer. We maintain a fully stocked warehouse and roll cylinders up to 18 feet in diameter, allowing us to fabricate large combustion assemblies under one roof.

Who We Serve

Malco fabricates vapor combustor units for a wide range of industries and applications across North America:

We serve oil and gas operations with vapor recovery systems at terminals, refineries, and wellsites. For power and utilities, we support emissions control and combustion air systems. And in chemical and emissions-intensive environments, we deliver VOC mitigation solutions and thermal oxidizer integration.

Whether you’re an EPC, OEM, or end user, Malco delivers the speed, quality, and reliability your high-heat projects require.

Why Malco

Responsive by Design
We move when specs change, schedules shift, or urgency strikes. Your deadlines drive our execution.

Fully Integrated Fabrication
Every step happens in-house, from raw steel through final wiring. No outsourcing. No delays.

U.S. Built, Industrial Strong
Oklahoma-based since 1982. Veteran-founded. Staffed by certified welders and problem solvers.

Experts Where Refractory Meets Fabrication
We specialize in complex, high-temperature builds for combustion and emissions systems.

Integrated Fabrication with Built-In Refractory Support

Malco is more than a fabricator. We’re a single-source partner equipped to handle every stage of your build. We manufacture our own refractory hardware, supply the ceramic fiber and refractory materials, and perform all sandblasting, painting, and assembly in-house. This end-to-end capability not only shortens lead times, it eliminates the need for multi-vendor coordination, a competitive advantage that keeps your project moving.
