Flare Gas Recovery are Reducing and Monitoring Flare Gas What is Flare Gas? In Petroleum refineries, Natural gas processing plants and in Oil and gas Production sites, mixture of natural gases is generated from the below sources: Extraction of Natural Gas along with oil from oil wells, Gases formed above the liquid level in storage tanks, Flashing of high pressure crude to low pressures. This gas consists of a mixture of various hydrocarbons and is also known as associated petroleum gas. The Gas is flammable in nature and its composition varies from plant to plant and will also vary with time over the operating life of the plant/Oil-well.
What is Gas Flaring and Why Flare Gas Recovery Systems are Useful? Gas flaring is generated by the combustion of associated gas coming from industrial processes including oil and gas recovery and petrochemical production. It is one of the most significant contributors to the increase in greenhouse emissions. Flare Gas Recovery Systems are one of the cleanest solutions to minimize or eliminate gas flaring.
Ejectors in Flare gas Recovery systems Ejectors perform a central role in Flare Gas Recovery Systems [subsequently denoted by FGRS] by compressing the low pressure gas mixtures to working pressures. Ejectors utilize the available high pressure gas as an energy source to bring about this compression.
