Summary
The document outlines the use of electronic flare ignition devices to replace traditional continuous or intermittent flames in flare stacks, preventing the release of unburned methane and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) when flames are extinguished by wind. It highlights that these devices can be powered by solar-charged batteries in remote areas and may be paired with flame sensors to shut off gas flow. Economically, the primary driver is the saving of natural gas that would otherwise be burned as a pilot flame, with a reported payback period of less than three years and a methane reduction of 168,000 standard cubic feet per year per device replacing a flame that is out for 24 hours annually.
Key insights
- Electronic flare ignition devices replace traditional flames with electric sparks, similar to gas stoves, and can be powered by solar-charged batteries in remote locations.
- The installation of one electronic ignition device replacing a single flame that is extinguished for 24 hours per year can reduce methane emissions by 168,000 standard cubic feet annually.
- The technology is applicable across the production, processing, and transport and distribution sectors, and was reported by Chevron U.S.A. (now ChevronTexaco).
