Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of petrochemical technology, and in particular to a ground flare emission device. Background Technology

[0002] Production activities in numerous industrial sectors such as petroleum, chemical, and natural gas generate large quantities of combustible waste gases. Ground flare systems, as a common and effective waste gas treatment device, play a crucial role in the safe combustion and discharge of these gases. Among these components, the quaternary tube, as a key component guiding and distributing waste gases, significantly impacts the overall operational performance of the system.

[0003] Currently, most ground-based flare systems use a four-stage pipeline system, with each stage typically consisting of only a single pipe. Under normal operating conditions, this design can meet certain exhaust gas emission requirements and achieve orderly combustion of the exhaust gases. However, the drawbacks of this design become apparent when pipe replacement is needed. Because each stage has only a single pipe, if a stage's pipe becomes damaged, ages, or requires replacement, it is usually necessary to shut down that stage's pipe to ensure the safe conduct of the replacement operation. During the replacement process, the exhaust gases that were originally emitted through that stage's pipe cannot normally enter the combustion zone, resulting in a temporary interruption of exhaust gas emission. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problem in the prior art where, in order to ensure the safe conduct of replacement work, it is usually necessary to shut down a certain level of pipeline when it is damaged, aged, or otherwise needs to be replaced. Therefore, a ground flare emission device is proposed.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a ground flare emission device, comprising a combustion tower, a base fixedly connected to the bottom of the combustion tower, and a primary pipe, a secondary pipe, a tertiary pipe and a quaternary pipe provided on one side of the combustion tower and above the base. Both ends of the primary pipe, the secondary pipe, the tertiary pipe and the quaternary pipe are flanged and connected to U-shaped pipes. An air inlet pipe is fixed and connected to the center of one end of the U-shaped pipe, and a connecting pipe is fixed and connected to the center of the other end of the U-shaped pipe. The other end of the connecting pipe is fixed and connected to the combustion tower.

[0006] Preferably, a windbreak wall is fixedly connected to the top of the base, and the combustion tower is located inside the windbreak wall.

[0007] Preferably, there are two of each of the primary tube, secondary tube, tertiary tube, and quaternary tube.

[0008] Preferably, control valves are fixedly installed at the top and near both ends of the U-shaped tube.

[0009] Preferably, the surface of the air intake pipe is fitted with and fixedly connected to a support plate, and the bottom of the support plate is fixedly connected to the top of the base.

[0010] Preferably, one end of each connecting pipe penetrates the windbreak wall and is fixedly connected to it.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0012] In this invention, the ground flare emission device has two grading pipes, which can serve as a backup for one grading pipe. When one grading pipe is damaged or aged and needs to be replaced, the control valve can be used to close the grading pipe at that point and open the control valve on the other grading pipe. This ensures that the device continues to operate while the damaged or aged grading pipe is being replaced, thereby improving the emission efficiency of the device. Attached Figure Description

It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0018] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.

[0019] Example 1, such as Figure 1-3As shown, this utility model provides a ground flare emission device, including a combustion tower 1. A base 2 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the combustion tower 1. A primary pipe 4, a secondary pipe 5, a tertiary pipe 6, and a quaternary pipe 7 are provided on one side of the combustion tower 1 and above the base 2. Both ends of the primary pipe 4, the secondary pipe 5, the tertiary pipe 6, and the quaternary pipe 7 are flanged and connected to U-shaped pipes 8. An air inlet pipe 10 is fixed and connected to the center of one end of the U-shaped pipe 8, and a connecting pipe 12 is fixed and connected to the center of the other end of the U-shaped pipe 8. The other end of the connecting pipe 12 is fixed and connected to the combustion tower 1.

[0020] The overall effect of Embodiment 1 is as follows: A base 2 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the combustion tower 1. A primary pipe 4, a secondary pipe 5, a tertiary pipe 6, and a quaternary pipe 7 are provided on one side of the combustion tower 1 and above the base 2. Both ends of the primary pipe 4, secondary pipe 5, tertiary pipe 6, and quaternary pipe 7 are flanged and connected to U-shaped pipes 8. An air inlet pipe 10 is fixed and connected to the center of one end of the U-shaped pipe 8, and a connecting pipe 12 is fixed and connected to the center of the other end of the U-shaped pipe 8. The other end of the connecting pipe 12 is fixed and connected to the combustion tower 1. This allows the device to continue operating while replacing a damaged or aged stage pipe, thus improving the emission efficiency of the device.

[0021] Example 2, as Figure 1-3 As shown, a windbreak wall 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 2, and the combustion tower 1 is located inside the windbreak wall 3; there are two of each of the first-stage pipe 4, second-stage pipe 5, third-stage pipe 6, and fourth-stage pipe 7; control valves 9 are fixedly installed on the top of the U-shaped pipe 8 and near both ends; support plates 11 are fitted and fixedly connected to the surface of the air inlet pipe 10, and the bottom of the support plates 11 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 2; one end of the connecting pipe 12 passes through the windbreak wall 3 and is fixedly connected to it.

[0022] The overall effect of Embodiment 2 is as follows: A windbreak wall 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 2, and the combustion tower 1 is located inside the windbreak wall 3, which acts as a physical barrier to prevent personnel from freely entering the exhaust gas incinerator enclosure area, thus ensuring personnel safety. Two of each of the primary pipe 4, secondary pipe 5, tertiary pipe 6, and quaternary pipe 7 are used, allowing one stage pipe to be kept as a backup, ensuring the device continues to operate even when the stage pipe is replaced. Control valves 9 are fixedly installed at the top and near both ends of the U-shaped pipe 8, allowing the control valves to control the airflow through the stage pipes. Support plates 11 are fitted and fixedly connected to the surface of the air inlet pipe 10, with the bottom of the support plates 11 fixedly connected to the top of the base 2, thus supporting the air inlet pipe 10. One end of each connecting pipe 12 penetrates the windbreak wall 3 and is fixedly connected to it, connecting the connecting pipe 12 to the U-shaped pipe 8 and the combustion tower 1.

[0023] Working principle: Each stage pipe in the ground flare emission device is equipped with two pipes. When one of the primary pipes 4, secondary pipes 5, tertiary pipes 6, and quaternary pipes 7 is damaged or aged and needs to be replaced, the control valve 9 can be used to close the pipe at that location and open the corresponding control valve 9 on the other pipe. This allows the device to continue operating while the damaged or aged stage pipe is being replaced, thereby improving the emission efficiency of the device.

[0024] The wiring diagrams of the combustion tower 1 and control valve 9 in this utility model are common knowledge in the field, and their working principles are known technologies. The appropriate model is selected according to actual use. Therefore, the control method and wiring layout of the combustion tower 1 and control valve 9 will not be explained in detail.
