COMBUSTION – Flare Systems: 

COMBUSTION – Flare Systems Utility Intermittent Emergency Shut Down Continuous Solution Gas, etc. Dual Function Acid Gas, etc. Usually an incinerator Basic Types Air Assist Steam Assist Gas Assist Sonic or Variable Slot Enclosed Ground Assist Off Smokeless (Assist) Assist On Thermal Oxidizer Full Control

COMBUSTION –: 

COMBUSTION – Pilot Monitor & Relight (TPMR) Principle: Continuous pilot Natural gas or propane Enclosed thermocouple monitors the pilot nozzle Temp drop below 500° triggers relight Attempts re-ignition up to 10 minutes (adjustable) Opens solenoid valve Tornado Ignition Systems Ignites fuel-air mixture Sends flame front to relight pilot Failure will close fuel supply, send alarm

COMBUSTION – : 

COMBUSTION – Higher combustion efficiency Benefits over flaring Incinerator Systems Reduced fuel costs ie. Acid gas – low energy No radiation at ground level Lower spacing requirements Eliminate odour concerns No flame visibility Destruction of BTEX’s 99.99% DRE Benzene, toluene, ethyl-benzene, xylene Known carcinogens ie. Dehy incinerator

COMBUSTION – Incinerator Systems: 

COMBUSTION – Incinerator Systems Basic Components Combustion Chamber Refractory Lining Burner Section Base Plate Combustion Air Damper Waste Gas Burner Fuel Gas Burner Pilot Burner (c/w monitor) Caged Ladder (1-foot above grade) Sampling Platform Thermocouple Sample Port Control Panel Gas Train

EMISSION CONTROL – Tank Accessories: 

EMISSION CONTROL – Tank Accessories ACCU-Set Gas Blanket Controller Tornado Patented Simple Process Triggers diaphragm-controlled micro-valve Actuates control valve in blanket gas supply line Tank pressure comes up, supply cuts off Controls all valve types Relief, vacuum, blanket gas supply, or pneumatic Very sensitive set points ¼-inch WC and up Simple, dependable, accurate Tank pressure decreases

PRODUCTION – : 

PRODUCTION – Overview Passive device Prevents flame front from traveling: back through lines, piping between combustion units and/or tanks from either direction Flame Arrestors

PRODUCTION – Knockout Drums: 

PRODUCTION – Knockout Drums Double-Walled Secondary Container Variations Single-Walled Tank Single-Walled Enclosed Tank Above or below ground Above ground Secondary containment wall Secondary containment wall Insulated, heated (optional)

PRODUCTION – : 

PRODUCTION – Positive Pressure Production Tanks and Packages Separation Incoming fluid is heated Liquids, vapours separated Storage Liquid dumped to tank Flare Tank operates up to 15 psig Stainless steel assembly displays fluid level Uniformly heated High pressure, high level ESD Detonation arrestor prevents flash back 15 psig Positive pressure forces vapours to flare system
