The installation of the enclosed flare system equipment has been completed at the construction site of the Amur Gas Chemical Complex. This solution will help to efficiently burn gases and protect the environment. The plant's press service reported that the new design will ensure gas disposal by 99.9%.
The first launch of the system is scheduled for the end of April 2026. The flares are included in the overall environmental protection circuit. They work together with a closed water cycle, which prevents the discharge of wastewater into water bodies, and energy-efficient equipment. The infrastructure also includes systems for renewable energy and digital sensors for leak detection.
Enclosed flares are needed for the safe combustion of process gases and vapors. This occurs during the start-up or shutdown of production, as well as during malfunctions. The combustion process takes place inside the towers, so there is no noise, smoke, or odor. The system is connected to the overall industrial safety of the complex. There are two units on site: the main and the backup. The height of each tower reaches 38 meters.
Thermal processes take place inside the towers, which keeps the noise level low. The equipment does not emit odor or smoke into the atmosphere.
