I.C.E.’s background

As a small branch derived from the

refinery models this kind of equipment is

now an hold point in every waste water

treatment plant.

With near twenty years of experience in

the design and manufacturing of biogas

flare system, coupling regulations and

practice, we can ensure to our customer

the right solution to their needs.

General equipment description

Biogas in excess from various sources

needs to be burnt across a flare system.

Here comes our specific knowledge and

experience in waste gases combustion,

derived from years of practice.

A typical installation consists of:

1- A main gas outlet (the flare tip), which

is the main biogas burner.

2- A support structure completed with

access ladder with bodyguard and

maintenance platform.

3- A valve train for gas control (in

weather or explosion proof execution,

electric or pneumatic).

4 - An adjustable syphon that enable to

change the safeguarding pressure of the

water seal.

5- A pilot burner, made from stainless

steel, for flare tip ignition.

6- A control panel that is mounted at

operator’s height which includes control

logic for ignition of the pilot burner, flame

revelation and the opening of the

interlock valves mounted on gas train.

7- The level indicator to check the height

of water seal level.

Special execution can be made of all of

our equipments, changing std. materials

for steelworks to AISI 304, 310 or 316

stainless steel.

Surface finish can be done in according

to our std. or to client’s specifications.

I.C.E. biogas flare system are designed

to minimize siteworks and installation

time and costs.

Equipment will be sent from workshop

completely assembled ready to be

erected and connected with supplies,

such as water for water seal feed, power

supply for control panel and biogas for

the flare itself.
