Enclosed Combustion
Vapor Combustion Unit (UltraVCU Series)
General
- Found predominantly in a distribution terminal – truck, rail, or marine loading
- Provides ground based, completely hidden combustion process
- Provides smokeless combustion of heavy waste gas vapors
- The combination of residence time, elevated combustion temperatures, and a turbulent mixing zone create greater combustion efficiency
- Multiple levels of safety protect against a potential flashback
Selection Criteria / Advantages
- Smokeless flow rates of up to 100% of total waste gas flow
- Minimal noise signature
- No radiant heat allows installation next to equipment and personnel
- Sampling ports allow for in situ emissions testing
- Stable and reliable combustion
- Inerting or enrichment gas used to maintain a waste gas mixture outside of the explosive limits prior to combustion
- Midstream oil & gas
- Petroleum refining
- Chemical processing industry (CPI)
- Terminals – marine, rail, and truck
- 99% + destruction efficiency
- Encore ContraFlash anti-flashback waste gas burners provide safe, efficient and reliable combustion
- Encore Energen pilots provide reliable and instantaneous ignition
- Secondary flashback protection with either a detonation arrestor or liquid seal drum
