The combustion conditions of a torch are very complex, and it is usually designed for the condition of maximum emissions. Under normal operating conditions of the plant, the flare gas is discharged in an orderly manner; in case of emergencies at the plant, immediate action is taken, and combustion through the flare ensures a burn-up rate of 99.5%. When it comes to pollution, there’s CO2, light, and noise.
