Biogas flares - Biogas utilization

Global Water & Energy offers four different types of flares, with an individual flare capacity up to 2000 m3/h.

• Elevated flare – a candlestick-type flare, high quality, with free visible flame.
   
• Shielded flare – elevated flare with the largely hidden flame within the shield.
   
• Enclosed flare – the flame is burning within the stainless-steel chimney, two-step ignition and high - temperature ignition are its key features – the strict emissions levels are needed an enclosed GWE flare is an ideal solution.
   
• Portable flare – is GWE’s enclosed flare installed in a container or skid for portability.

For safety purposes, all anaerobic plants must be equipped with an emergency biogas flares, to permit disposal of biogas when it cannot be utilized.

GWE offers flares suitable for operation at low to medium pressure ranges (< 50 mbar) without the need for biogas blowers or fans to boost the pressure. Moreover, they are appropriate for continuous burning over a wide range of biogas flows (5-100% of design flow).
