Turbomix Air-assist Flares (TMA)

Utility flares are of the most common and basic flares. Utility flares are employed in applications which do not require smokeless burning or in applications where smokeless flaring can be achieved without the use of an additional assist medium. Utility flares therefore, do not require auxiliary gas streams such as steam or air; two fluids normally used to improve smokeless capacity. These flares are typically accompanied by a Dynamic Seal in the base of the tip to reduce purge gas costs and prevent flashback. Additionally, a stainless steel flame retention ring is designed to prevent flame lift off.

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.

Peacook liquid Burner

The Peacock Burner was developed to flare liquid hydrocarbons without liquid fallout or soot formation (smoke). These burners provide excellent service for well testing operations and have been used in applications in the Gulf of Mexico and Arabian Gulf. When only oil is flared, a high pressure air or gas source is required to provide mechanical atomization which ensures the mixture is a fine mist as it exits the burner nozzle. This particular burner nozzle is designed to accept separate high pressure oil and air/gas streams. for maximum efficiency.

Flame Ring Flares (Low Heating Value)

Carbon dioxide is often used in fire extinguishers and snuffing systems with the intention of effectively extinguishing flames. When CO2 gas is a large percentage of a waste gas stream, at times it proves difficult to maintain a lit flare, without the use of assist gas or a flame ring. Flare Industries’ industry-proven Flame Ring Flare Technology is recommended in low-BTU applications such as those involving large quantities of CO2 gas. A circumferential ring of fire at the flare tip provides stable, reliable ignition and prevents potential auto-suppression of the flame in these low-BTU applications.

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.
