WHAT WE DO BEST: LET'S TELL OUR WORK
Strengthened by the 34 years of experience that preceded us, today we offer to the national scene a company in the segment of alternative and emergency CNG (Compressed Methane) supplies by means of Tank Wagons and Tank Wagons.
Our operational headquarters is located in Gela and occupies an area of about 7000 square meters. The business units on which our economy is based are the following: the wholesale retail sale of traditional fuels and the continuous and emergency supplies of Methane.
Going into detail, here are the areas of relevance:
Continuous civil supplies to network management customers who supply municipalities in Sardinia not connected to the national transport network, through the use of tank wagons;
Emergency supplies of methane to the national transport company and to the distribution companies that use alternative means during the maintenance of a gas pipeline.
Methane for industries and commercial activities. The compressed methane, transported through our tanks, is delivered to the customer through a special adduction system (cabin and tank).
The fleet Of 52 means is one of the largest in the product sector in which we operate. With the use of highly specialized personnel, today we are able to carry out in a few hours supply of methane gas to municipalities or industrial complexes in cases of interrupted supply caused by breakages, maintenance or extensions of the methane pipelines.
Meic is able to ensure the supply of methane even where there is no methane pipeline, for industrial and civil uses and for scheduled maintenance and emergency interventions. Meic carries out engineering services capable of responding to every design, technical and economic requirement aimed at the realization of:
- decompression systems
- storage
- supply
- adduction methane gas
Our delivery service is reliable, safe and timely, and for this important industries chosen us.
Industry
For companies, natural gas methane is the fuel of the future, in recent years it has replaced polluting fuels with significant advantages from an economic point of view and respect for the environment.In addition to cost savings, guaranteed by the low supply price and its characteristics, methane allows companies to reduce maintenance work on heating systems and eliminate the costs faced for periodic control of fumes.
Unlike petroleum-derived fuels (diesel, G.P.L., BTZ), methane does not undergo refining processes but is introduced into methane pipelines as well as it is extracted from the subsoil, hence the low cost of supply and lower fluctuations price over the years. To make up for the still poor ramification of the methane pipeline network and to allow all Sicilian companies to take advantage of the advantages of methane, Meic Services has built a highly specialized structure capable of supplying methane to all those companies not yet reached by the pipeline.
The methane is compressed and delivered to the user via cylinder trucks, here will be realized a supply system to enable the gas supply. Meic Services offers customers a turnkey service: in addition to methane gas supply, also builds the supply system (cab and tank); with its engineering service is able to complete all design practices for issuing authorizations from the relevant authorities (V.V.F.F. etc.).
Heating for greenhouses
Companies with greenhouses that use the methane can take advantage of additional benefits, in fact, with the use of methane as a fuel gas are able to produce an artificial climate inside greenhouses, thus creating the conditions suitable for optimal growth of the plant.
Furthermore, the use of methane gas allows the so-called carbonic fertilization , ie the increase in the content of CO2 (carbon anhydrite) inside the greenhouses which contributes to a good growth of the plants.
Under normal environmental conditions the amount of CO2 in the air is 0.03 vol.%, In a non-ventilated greenhouse Puu this amount down to about 0.01 vol.% With a decrease of 20% of the plant growth rate. Instead with using methane gas CO2 it can be integrated using the products of combustion.
use of smokes can be achieved by tapping off a part of the same in the final stretch of the exhaust chimney or with the direct entry of smoke into the greenhouse. The carbonic fertilization applications already adopted have proved themselves to the satisfaction of producers.
Emergency Supplies
Thanks to a large fleet of CNG trailers with storage capacity of up to 6,394 cubic meters each., With modular cabins preheating-reduction and the use of highly specialized personnel.
Today Meic Services is able to be able to carry out, in a few hours, of methane gas supplies to industrial complexes or country in cases of dispensing interruption caused by breakage, maintenance or expansion of gas pipelines.
