Seeking advice on the design of combustible gas emission systems for different devices
Thread Content
May I ask whether combustible gases emitted by different units (with similar pressure and composition) can be directly combined into a single main pipe for combustion in a flare? Thank you!
The design principle of the flare gas system is: separation by quality and pressure. It is up to the design institute to decide whether the streams can be combined into a single main pipe for feeding to the flare for combustion.
It is related not only to pressure and components but also to the operating status of different units; whether they operate simultaneously or as backups for each other all affect the combustion conditions of the flare. It is recommended to consult a professional design firm for specific advice.
“The fact that the flares in the entire plant are operated in this way does not mean that all the gases that can be burned can be discharged through a single pipeline system.
Professional design institutes are needed to carry out calculations to obtain the results, and it is also necessary to take into account the varying pressures that exist during actual use
