flaring is burning of excess gases in safe area away from
plant.these can observed in almost all
petrochemical/petroleum refineries/power plants/steeel
plants wherever hydrocarbon gases which form explosive
mixtures are used.this is done due to many reasons
(1) excess gas production than requirement of downstream
plants
(2)sudden tripping of consumers i.e downstream plants
(3) gas not meeting standards required by customer i.e
downstream plants
(4)unwanted pressure increase in pipelines conneting
customer and supplier
(5) stopppage equipment like compressors,blower.
(6)even when there is pipeline leaks,gas is routed to
flares.
