Often used in combination with an elevated flare, the use of a ground flare offers many advantages, particularly where strict environmental issues have to be considered. The Hamworthy (Airoil-Flaregas) range of ground flare systems include the following: The enclosed chamber ground flare enables flaring without the flame being visible from the chamber itself outside. If plot area is a constraint, the radiation resulting from an open flame can be eliminated, thus reducing the necessary plot size. Dependent on the type of gas to be burned and the pressure of the gas, the enclosed chamber...

The Hamworthy (Airoil-Flaregas) proprietary purge reduction devices include: Flame Front Ignition Gas Seals (Purge Reduction Devices) Several types of flare pilot Ignition systems can be provided. The most usual is by the "flame front system" in which an ignition tube to the pilot is filled with a combustible mixture. This system utilises a manual or automatic control panel located at ground level which provides a combustible mixture of gas and air in a tube from the panel to the pilot at the flare tip. The system ignites the combustible mixture which then travels up the tube and ignites...
