The combustible gas telemetry sensing unit 1, the flame detection unit 3, the plasma ignition module 4, the infrared combustible gas detection sensor 7 and the venting flow signal detection sensor 8 are all connected to the ignition control module 5 data signal. The ignition control module 5 is a conventional PLC controller. The present application can directly ignite the venting gas without the need for a fuel medium, so as to achieve the purpose of energy saving and emission reduction, and ignition at the same time (ignition at the time of emission, and ignition at the time of non-emission).

[0030] Preferably, the combustible gas remote sensing unit 1 is a laser combustible gas sensor: its principle is based on the absorption characteristics of gas molecules to laser beams of specific wavelengths. Since different gases absorb lasers at different intensities, the reflected laser intensities are different. The type of gas can be determined based on the reflected laser intensities.

Specifically, the axial lower end of the diverter tube body 21 is set as an expansion type air inlet port in a manner that the vent gas can be diverted in sufficient amount to form a vent gas branch for ignition. Further preferably, a parallel tube cavity capable of performing secondary separation of the vent gas branch for ignition and synchronously introducing it into two parallel safety burners 22 is constructed at the axial upper end of the diverter tube body 21. Preferably, a plasma ignition gun 42 of a plasma ignition module 4 capable of igniting the vent gas branch it transports is connected to the side of the axial lower section of the safety burner 22. Preferably, the height difference between the position where the tube of the safety burner 22 is connected to the plasma ignition gun 42 and the outlet of the flare head barrel 24 is not less than 2 meters, so as to ensure that the plasma ignition gun 42 is prevented from being burned by the vent gas output by the flare head barrel 24 and burning normally, thereby isolating and protecting the plasma ignition gun 42.

[0032] Preferably, the flame detection unit 3 includes a photosensitive sensor unit 31 and a thermocouple sensor unit 32, both of which can identify whether the flare head 2 burns the exhaust gas to generate a flame. Specifically, the photosensitive sensor unit 31 is installed on the ground in a manner that can remotely identify the ultraviolet rays or infrared rays in the combustion flame generated by the venting gas discharged from the flare head 2. Specifically, the thermocouple sensor unit 32 is installed on the wind shield 23 in a manner that can identify the flame by the flame temperature, so that the photosensitive sensor unit 31 and the thermocouple sensor unit 32 can identify the flame generated by the ignition of the venting gas from different dimensions, so as to perform dual monitoring of the combustion of the venting gas to ensure the monitoring accuracy, and the mutual verification of the two data also improves the accuracy and effectiveness of the monitoring feedback data.

Preferably, the plasma ignition generating unit 41 arranged on the ground is connected to the plasma ignition gun 42 via the plasma ignition cable 43. Further preferably, a self-cleaning unit 44 is also arranged on one side of the plasma ignition generating unit 41. Preferably, the self-cleaning unit 44 is connected to the plasma ignition electrode mounting chamber of the plasma ignition gun 42 via the self-cleaning pipeline 45.

[0034] Preferably, a venting gas inlet 62 connected to a venting gas delivery pipeline is provided on the side wall of the gas delivery cylinder 61. Preferably, the gas delivery cylinder 61 is supported on the ground by a base 63 provided at its axial lower end.

[0035] When the natural gas station starts to vent, different sensor units capture the emission information of the vented gas (ie, combustible gas) according to the displacement of the vented gas.

[0036] Specifically, when the vent gas (combustible gas) is discharged at a large flow rate:

[0037] After the vent gas (combustible gas) is input from the vent gas inlet 62, the vent flow signal detection sensor unit 8 detects the vent flow signal, and the infrared combustible gas detection sensor unit 7 detects the combustible gas signal. At the same time, the vent gas enters the flare head 2 from the top of the gas cylinder body 61, and the axial upper end outlet of the flare head 2 sprays out combustible gas. The combustible gas telemetry sensor unit 1 detects the discharge of combustible gas and feeds back the combustible gas emission signal to the ignition control module 5. At the same time, the vent flow signal detection sensor unit 8 also sends the vent flow signal to the ignition control module 5, and the infrared combustible gas detection sensor unit 7 also sends the combustible gas signal to the control system 5. The ignition control module 5 sends an ignition signal to the plasma ignition generating unit 41. The high voltage output by the plasma ignition generating unit 41 is transmitted to the plasma ignition gun 42 at the top through the plasma ignition cable 43. The plasma ignition gun 42 begins to break through the air to generate a plasma arc. At the same time, the diverter tube 21 in the flare head 2 diverts a part of the venting gas into the lower part of the safety burner 22. The venting gas entering the lower part of the safety burner 22 encounters the plasma arc generated by the plasma ignition gun 42 and is immediately ignited. The ignited flame is quickly ejected from the lower part of the safety burner 22 from the outlet of the safety burner 22. The ejected flame ignites the main venting gas at the outlet of the flare head barrel 24, so that the venting gas is discharged and burned normally. When the flame detection unit 3 detects that the venting gas is burning normally, it gives an ignition signal to the ignition control module 5. The ignition control module 5 receives the torch ignition signal and gives an ignition shutdown signal to the plasma ignition generating unit 41. The plasma ignition generating unit 41 stops ignition.

[0038] Specifically, when the vent gas (combustible gas) is discharged at a small flow rate:

[0039] After the vent gas (combustible gas) is input from the vent gas inlet 62, the infrared combustible gas detection sensor unit 7 detects the combustible gas signal. At the same time, the vent gas enters the flare head 2 from the top of the gas cylinder body 61, and the axial upper end outlet of the flare head 2 sprays out combustible gas. The combustible gas telemetry sensor unit 1 detects the discharge of combustible gas, thereby feeding back the combustible gas emission signal to the ignition control module 5, and the infrared combustible gas detection sensor unit 7 also sends the combustible gas signal to the control system 5. The ignition control module 5 gives an ignition signal to the plasma ignition generating unit 41. The high-voltage current output by the plasma ignition generating unit 41 is transmitted to the plasma ignition gun 42 at the top through the plasma ignition cable 43. The plasma ignition gun 42 begins to break down the air generation. A plasma arc is generated. At the same time, the diverter tube 21 in the flare head barrel 24 diverts a part of the vent gas into the lower part of the safety burner 22. The vent gas entering the lower part of the safety burner 22 encounters the plasma arc generated by the plasma ignition gun 42 and is immediately ignited. The ignited flame is rapidly ejected from the lower part of the safety burner 22 from the outlet of the safety burner 22. The ejected flame ignites the main vent gas at the outlet of the flare head barrel 24, so that the vent gas is discharged and burned normally. When the flame detection unit 3 detects that the vent gas is burning normally, it gives an ignition signal to the ignition control module 5. The ignition control module 5 receives the torch ignition signal and gives an ignition shutdown signal to the plasma ignition generating unit 41. The plasma ignition generating unit 41 stops ignition.

[0040] Since the medium discharged by the venting torch contains a lot of impurities, in order to ensure the reliability of ignition and extend the life of the plasma ignition gun, the present application introduces a self-cleaning unit 44. The self-cleaning unit 44 is a micro fan. When the venting torch is put into operation, the ignition control module 5 starts the micro fan to send wind to the plasma ignition electrode of the plasma ignition gun at the top of the venting torch barrel 6 through the self-cleaning pipeline 45, so that the ignition electrode can be kept clean (not short-circuited), thereby reliably generating plasma arc ignition. At the same time, the wind sent by the micro fan is mixed with the venting gas entering the lower part of the safety burner 22 at the lower part of the safety burner 22, and the mixed combustible gas (sufficient oxygen) ensures the reliability of ignition and combustion. At the same time, the wind sent by the micro fan also has the function of cooling the plasma ignition electrode.

[0041] The utility model adopts a combustible gas telemetry sensor unit 1 and an infrared combustible gas detection sensor unit 7 to realize the emission detection of the venting gas, which can overcome the defect that the traditional venting torch adopts a flow switch and cannot automatically ignite when the flow rate is small, and greatly improves the reliability of the automatic ignition of the venting torch. At the same time, the utility model adopts an ignition method with a safety burner 22, and the ignition gas source of the safety burner 22 comes from the diversion of the venting gas. At the same time, the ignition position is located at the bottom of the safety burner 22, and the plasma ignition electrode is far away from the outlet of the torch head barrel 24, avoiding the major safety hazard of the traditional plasma ignition system that the electrode is installed at the top of the torch outlet and cannot be burned and ignited.

[0042] Example 2

[0043] This embodiment is a further improvement on the basis of the embodiment 1, and the repeated contents will not be repeated here.

[0044] like Figure 3 As shown, in order to ensure the adjustability of the ignition and combustion intensity of the safety burner 22, the side pipe port connected to the plasma ignition gun 42 and the main pipe body of the safety burner 22 are arranged in a manner to form an inclined upward angle, so that the clean air output by the plasma ignition gun 42 can be transported upward along the tube cavity of the main pipe body of the safety burner 22 under the action of its own flow force, so that it can pull the vent gas diverted by the safety burner 22 to change the flow rate of the vent gas branch used for ignition. This is because the directional flow of the clean gas in the safety burner 22 can form a traction airflow, so that a local negative pressure environment is formed in the lower part of the tube cavity of the safety burner close to the air intake device 2.1. The traction of the vent gas can change the flow rate of the ignition vent gas branch by changing the flow rate of the clean airflow, so that when the composition of the vent gas changes and the flammability changes, the branch vent airflow with adjustable flow rate and the clean air with variable oxygen mixing amount can be used to achieve effective ignition.
