Smokeless Burner Advantages

ENERGY EQUIPMENT

Summit offers Flare-Tip Burners capable of combustion

completion when operated within design parameters
set forth by Summit. Summit Smokeless Flare Burners
include necessary internal components for efficiency,
stability, and will meet or exceed current regulation
requirements.
Design parameters have been developed by Summit in
order to operate the Smokeless Flare Burners.
The burners have been designed with calculations for
sizing two stages of air to mix with the waste gas to
complete combustion. Summit has designed eight of
these unique combustion burners for eight different
site ranges. Summit can custom design burners for
specific site conditions as needed.
Summit has designed several variable smokeless flare
burner tips using Jerry Langs Patented Technology,
ranging from 1MSCFD to 6MMSCFD. These tips are
available on new stationary and mobile flare stacks.
Our flares are truly smokeless based on your site
conditions including flow rates, waste gas composition,
and pressure available. We design each burner to
mix proper air with the gas coming off of your facility
without blowers or steam.
While you can buy similar systems from others, Emission
control is our advantage and what we have been
doing for many years.

EPA Requirements
Flare Systems Meet All EPA Requirements
Summit open flare systems are guaranteed to meet EPA
requirements for 40 CFR 60.18 and have destruction
removal efficiency (DRE) of 98%. If higher destruction is
required, an enclosed flare system may be utilized if it is
economically practical.
Our designs are based on experience with flare
installations and flow medium analysis supplied by
customer. Summit is a leader in flare system innovation
and design, having supplied and installed successful,
proven systems nationwide. From our use of modern
structural and control techniques, to our proven
flare tip and seal designs, Summit is committed to
manufacturing the best flares built. We are able to
accomplish this goal in part due to the following:
Summit believes in safety first. Our flare system designs
adhere to the strictest of safety standards.
Flares are of the highest quality.
Flare Pilots are designed for years of reliable, continuous
operation.
Summit Flame Retention Rings promote stable
combustion and prevent lift-off at high exit velocities.
Summit Purge Seals are designed for maximum
efficiency and low operating cost.
Prompt and reliable pilot ignition/monitoring
systems allow for optimum performance of the flare
systems.
Our experience and relentless pursuit to keep our
customers happy are unmatched in the combustion
and flare industries.

Tip Specifications

H2S FLARING

1. GAS & SITE ANALYSIS TO COMPLY WITH

MSCF/d - Minimum/Maximum
PSI - Minimum Available/Maximum Available
BTU/ft3 / Specific Gravity

Hydrogen sulfide is a toxic gas and is most commonly

obtained by its separation from sour gas, which is
natural gas with high content of H2S. In most cases, this
gas must be flared for the protection of people
as well as environment. Many flares around shale areas
are only flaring 40-50% of the hydrocarbons,
leaving unburned hydrocarbons going into the
atmosphere. H2S is slightly heavier than air so typical
flares
are not safe for combusting this molecular weight of gas
while Summits flare burners combust this gas
and burn it off first.

2. OTHER CONSIDERATIONS
Tip Velocity is calculated at less than 400 ft/sec
Ideal pressure on standard Summit burners is 30 PSI
except when higher BTU gas is being burned than
what the tip is designed for
Explanation: Heavier gasses (2,300 BTU/ft3 would
use lower pressure than what the tip is for if it is
designed for (1,400 BTU/ft3)
3. BURNER TIP CAPACITY FLOW RATE

0 - 1,000,000 MSCF/d
1,000,000 - 2,000,000 MSCF/d
2,000,000 - 4,000,000 MSCF/d
4,000,000 - 6,000,000 MSCF/d

Guarantee
Summit can guarantee that when the smokeless burners
are operated within their designed parameters, they will
burn smokeless.

Pilot Igniter

Summits SP8 Series Spark Ignited Pilots are designed to provide an ignition source for small to medium size flares.
Ignition of the pilot gas is assured by an intermittent spark in the pilot nozzle every two seconds regardless of the
pilot flame temperature.
Control for the SP8 Series Pilots includes a Spark Oscillator Module, thermocouple controller (with alarm contacts
and an analog temperature retransmission signal), battery and battery charger in a Nema 4 fiberglass enclosure.
The standard controls for the SP8 Series Pilots are
designed to operate on 120 VAC and will provide 10
hours of operation during power disruption. Minimum
methane requirement for this pilot is 70scfh@ 5 psi. As
with all of our equipment, custom pilots and controls
are offered to meet field requirements.
