Sonic Flares – AirMach

The AirMach flaring system was developed to specifically address the problems associated with sonic velocity flares operating at sub-sonic flow rates.  Sonic flares operating at sub-sonic exit velocities will smoke when heavier waste gas flows are present.  The AirMach provides  smokeless flaring performance at lower flow conditions utilizing a blower for combustion air. In this application,  the AirMach operates as a traditional air-assist flare.

Sonic Flares – Mach 1

Mach-1 Sonic Flares are used in both onshore and offshore applications to dispose of high pressure waste gas streams with high smokeless capacities. By efficiently inducing high volumes of ambient air for more complete, smokeless combustion at sonic velocities, this advanced flaring technology allows for reduced levels of radiation, and can be placed at lower, less visible elevations, allowing for a more cost-effective flaring solution. Mach-1 sonic flare technology can be applied in multi-point orientations which accomodate flame length restrictions.

Sonic Flares – VariMach

The VariMach sonic flare tip features spring-actuated variable sonic nozzles that allow the exit area to vary with pressure, ensuring constant sonic velocity of waste gas. This industry-proven technology guarantees sufficient inspiration of air to ensure 100% smokeless combustion and infinite turndown. Radiation levels are also minimized throughout the entire range of flow, yielding shorter stack heights and reducing material costs. Additionally, the VariMach has the lowest purge rate of any flare technology on the market, minimizing utility costs while maintaining flashback protection.

Turbomix Air-assist Flares (TMA)

Turbo-Mix Air Assisted flares are comprised of two tandem risers (waste gas and air) and a blower system that provides supplemental combustion air. In contrast to the Slot Flow Air Assist Flare Design, the TMA employs tandem air and gas risers to provide a more economical flare package when a large quantity of smokeless air is required. Mixing of waste gas and combustion air at the flare tip exit optimizes mixing and ultimately improves combustion efficiency. Turbo-Mix Air Assisted flares generally dispose of heavier waste gases which have a greater tendency to smoke.
