Current High Smokeless Capacity Technology
Current industry technologies are sophisticated designs requiring complex control of multiple steam lines. Previous Next Press ESC to return to main menu

Breakthrough XP Design
The XP advanced steam injection system was designed to provide ultra- high steam efficiency. The XP steam injection system features a single steam line and simplified steam controls. Single Steam Line Previous Next Press ESC to return to main menu

Ultra High Efficiency Steam Injection System
XP Technology Straight tubes that optimize the primary air entrainment and mixing with the flare gas. Ultra High Efficiency Steam Injection System Existing Technology Bent steam/air tubes that cause high pressure drop restricting the primary air that can mix with the flare gas. Bent Steam Tubes Straight Steam Tubes Previous Next Press ESC to return to main menu

Improved Mixing The XP utilizes a patent- pending “Moderated Shear Mixing” technique providing superior smokeless performance. This is achieved by optimizing turbulence in the steam/air/flare gas mixing zone. Previous Next Press ESC to return to main menu
9
Increased Secondary Air Efficiency
The XP uses multiple small- diameter tubes. These tubes allow open paths for secondary air to be entrained and mixed into the flame prior to combustion. Existing high capacity steam flares use a large diameter barrel that does not allow internal secondary air entrainment. Secondary Air Previous Next Press ESC to return to main menu

XP Steam System Benefits
Saves more than 30% of the steam used by current technologies at the same smokeless capacity. Uses much less standby steam (cooling steam) than existing technologies. This combined reduction in steam usage provides significant annual operational cost savings. Previous Next Press ESC to return to main menu

Typical XP Steam Savings
Results are dependent upon actual tip size and operating parameters. Previous Next Press ESC to return to main menu
12
Additional XP Benefits
In addition to the benefits associated with the advanced steam injection system, the XP has the added benefit of increasing the expected tip life. Previous Next Press ESC to return to main menu
13
Steam Capping Reduces Tip Life
Existing technologies are susceptible to severe damage due to steam capping, the phenomenon that results in flame backflow. This occurs when the upper steam is operated at too high a rate. Upper steam Waste gas Lower steam Center Previous Next Press ESC to return to main menu

XP Improved Tip Life The XP steam flare eliminates upper steam nozzles and the associated damage due to steam capping. The XP single steam line simplifies operation and thereby reduces the possibility of tip damage due to improper steam control. Single Steam Line Previous Next Press ESC to return to main menu
