From Regulation to Optimization:Unlocking Flare Performance with Ultrasonic Measurement and flare.IQ

The recent EPA Hazardous Organic NESHAP (HON) final rule introduces stringent requirements for flare operations, including continuous pilot flame maintenance, smokeless operation, and precise flare gas flow measurement. These regulations aim to significantly reduce hazardous air pollutants such as ethylene oxide and chloroprene, driving facilities to adopt advanced monitoring and control technologies to ensure compliance and minimize environmental impact. 

This webinar will explore the critical role of ultrasonic flow measurement in meeting HON requirements and optimizing flare performance. We will discuss how accurate, real-time data enables operators to maintain combustion efficiency, control steam and air assist for smokeless operation, and ensure compliance with flow accuracy standards across challenging conditions such as wide flow ranges and variable gas compositions. Additionally, we will highlight how flare.IQ enhances flare control by integrating advanced analytics and control logic to optimize combustion, reduce utility costs, and improve emissions reporting. 

Key discussion points include:

• Implications of HON regulations on flare gas flow measurement, smokeless operation, and emissions monitoring
• Advantages of ultrasonic flow meters for accurate, reliable flare gas measurement under dynamic conditions
• How flare.IQ delivers real-time optimization, improved combustion efficiency, and reduced operational costs
