Venting of high-temperature gases
Thread Content
If the final stage of a reciprocating compressor is not cooled and the outlet temperature is 100 degrees, can the overpressure vent line installed on the outlet pipeline be connected directly to the flare pipeline? Can the torch withstand it?
The condensate at 100°C doesn’t cool down, so I think it’s not possible to simply reduce the wattage.
The temperature is high; it’s not advisable to send it directly to the flare
