【Haichuan Chemical Engineering Updates】Construction of the 140m flare tower at Tianjin Nangang Ethylene Plant successfully completed
Thread Content
On the morning of June 8, 2023, with the sixth section of the tower module for the elevated torch successfully in place, the construction of the torch tower for the Tianjin Nangang ethylene project was completed, marking the entry of the project into its final phase. The flare tower of the Tianjin Nangang ethylene project is located within the flare installation area. It is 140 meters tall and weighs 732 tons in total. It is assembled in six sections; except for the first section of the tower module, which is assembled directly on the foundation, the remaining tower modules are assembled on the ground before being lifted into place section by section. Given the weight of the tower module, a 1,000-ton class crawler crane is required to carry out lifting using the direct lifting method with a single machine; it is a highly complex project involving heavy weights and large dimensions. Moreover, the site being located by the sea means there are frequent strong winds and poor geological conditions, all of which pose significant difficulties for the construction of the tower structure.
In terms of its structural design, it appears to be a detachable torch, with multiple torch discharge systems.
It should be; is this a trend for the future? ? ? ? ?

To produce detachable torches, the manufacturing process requires various characteristics such as continuous and uniform emission, large volumes of output, short downtime of the equipment, and integration with other systems; otherwise, the cost-effectiveness is low.
