Flare rate:
The smokeless capacity depends on the gas burned, the tollerance for radiant heat and other variables. The flare was designed by Purgit and engineered to be smokeless over a wide range of conditions.

The mobile flare is perfect for burning LP gases such as butadiene, butane, propylene, and propane. It is also great when used for ammonia vapor control. Generally it is useful for all compounds that can be controlled with thermal combustion.

PURGIT also has a high performance non-sparking blower with a diesel engine. It can be used to draw vapors from your tank or pipeline and push them to the flare.

Call PURGIT when you need assistance controlling emissions during purging operations or when degassing pipelines, rail cars, tank barges, ships, floating roof tanks and pressure tanks of all kind.
