How is the distance between a closed surface torch and facilities outside the plant calculated? If there are no requirements regarding the distance between open-flame equipment and the outside of the plant, does that mean there are also no requirements regarding the distance between enclosed ground flares and the outside of the plant?

The distance of off-site facilities is usually related to the BL line within the plant area, and is unrelated to the distance from ground flares. Around the ground torch are usually the factory roads and equipment.

What this means is that there should actually be a circular road surrounding the ground torch; it cannot be placed directly next to a corner wall

1. Typically, ground torches are installed inside the facility, positioned according to the location of the equipment, near the passages within the facility; it is not necessary for them to be placed in corners; 2. Inside the factory wall, there is usually a path that surrounds the factory area; this is a fire road that must be installed in accordance with fire safety regulations ; 3. Ground torches are different from plant-wide torches; they are open-flame devices that can be isolated by firewalls, unlike the elevated torches used throughout the plant which require a safety radius to prevent fire sparks from falling.
