Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of heat energy recovery and utilization equipment, specifically relating to a device for recovering and utilizing heat energy from associated gas flares in petroleum. Technical Background
[0002] With the booming development of the oil and gas industry and the increasing demands for energy conservation, emission reduction, low carbon emissions, and environmental protection in oil fields, higher requirements are being placed on the technology for recovering and utilizing the heat energy generated by associated gas combustion flares. In known technologies, associated gas in oil fields refers to gases that cannot be directly utilized and are discharged along with petroleum liquids during oil field extraction. While existing associated gas flares, employing methods such as fire-driven, steam-driven, or gas-driven combustion, control emissions and combustion through operational devices to minimize waste, still suffer from wasted associated gas combustion heat energy, failing to achieve effective recovery and utilization. Conventional heat exchangers cannot withstand the high temperatures exceeding 1000℃ and the presence of corrosive components like H2S and CO2 in associated gas flares. For example, a associated gas venting combustion monitoring and control flare disclosed in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN209605172U, while capable of real-time monitoring of associated gas flare combustibility and improving combustion safety, still has room for improvement in associated gas flare heat energy recovery and utilization due to its structural limitations. This directly relates to the recovery and reuse of associated gas flare heat energy in oilfields and the achievement of low-carbon and environmental protection goals. Therefore, it is necessary to research and develop a novel flare combustion heat energy utilization device suitable for reducing waste and utilizing associated gas combustion heat energy.
