Sizing
All units are sized based on a Gas with a heating value of 1600 BTU/SCF. Combustors range in size from 20,000 to 1.5 million MSCFD.
2- Vapor Recovery Units
Our VRUs are fully self-contained and engineered around a rotary screw compressor that is simple to install, operate, and maintain!
Featuring our automated precision monitored control system with integrated blanket gas management, these VRUs are suited to accommodate the tight control needed to maintain the low pressure range of vapor recovery.
Features and Benefits
- Maximize return on investment
- Low maintenance and high reliability
- Smooth, quiet operation
- Recover every BTU and avoid vapor emissions to atmosphere
- 100% captured VOC’s, 0% to atmosphere
- Environmentally friendly
3- Air Assist Flares
Air Assist technology is a proven method to achieve smokeless combustion of gas streams. The flare gas and air flow to the flare tip where they mix.
The air assist blower provides a portion of the stoichiometric air required for combustion at high velocity which generates sufficient turbulence for mixing thus eliminating smoke formation. The combustion air comes from a centrifugal or axial blower mounted near the bottom of the flare.
Small production flares can use a 3-5 HP blower, while large custom air flares may require multiple blowers up to 150 HP each.
Features and Benefits
- Meets exit velocity req. of 40 CFR 60.18
- 98% Destruction Efficiency
- Retractable pilots
- Structural design wind speed to 120mph
- Single piece lift for easy installation
- Flow rates: 0.600 to 18.0 MMSCFD
- Maximum radiation 1,500 BTU/ft at grade
Available Options
- Solar Option Available for Some Ignition Units
- Knockout Drum
- Fixed Pilots
4- Sonic Flares
A sonic flare utilizes the high pressure of the waste gas stream to eliminate smoke, shorten the flame length and reduce the ground level radiation. This in turns leads to lower flare stack heights, smaller flare headers and can reduce the capital cost.
Sonic flares typically operate where the flare gas pressure is between 8 and 50 psig. Mission Flares and Combustion utilizes a variable orifice style sonic tip, also know as a Coanda Flare.
This advanced flare tip adjusts the flare tip exit based on the operating pressure of the flare.
At low pressure the exit area is almost closed and as the pressure increased the area opens to allow for the increased flow.
The MVF flare provides smokeless combustion from 0 -100% of the designed flow rate. These flares are well suited for emergency flaring.
5- High Pressure Flares
The Mission High Pressure Flare is designed to utilize the energy in a high pressure gas stream for smokeless combustion.
The HP Flare has a integrated knock-out drum and will accommodate flows ranging from 1.5 to 5 MMSCFD.
Mission High Pressure Flares are equipped with a retractable pilot, and are constructed with a carbon steel riser and a stainless steel flare tip.
