FLAME is a software tool for Flare & Emission Management System which enables the clients to meet the requirements of regulatory compliances by estimating flare study & emissions from all the sources.
FLAME fortifies the plant engineer with:
- Estimation of flaring & emissions accurately from all the sources (flare pressure controllers, sweep gas sources, equipment depressurization, etc.) and report these in specified format to statutory and regulatory bodies.
- Estimation & reports submission of Air pollutants & Green House Gas emissions as per standard environment norms (US EPA for particulate matters, SO2, H2S, NOx, CO, VOC etc. & EU-ETS for CO2, N2O, CH4, CO2 eq. Etc.)
- Reporting of flaring as per regulatory authority:
- Flared Gas Volume, Composition and Heating Value, Flared Duration, Type and Flare details, Type of Flaring Incidents etc.
- A way to track improvements and identify scope carbon trading opportunities
- Insights for Integration of environmental emissions across the facility
- A methodology for flare minimization
- An up-to-date database of plant emission data
- Quantification of flared gas for any incident
FLAME inputs:
- Uses in-built dynamic flow equations for actual pressure & temperature conditions
- Automatically captures and uses minute wise data input from DCS for accurate estimation
- Automatically captures flare gas data from all sources:
- Pressure Relief valves, Flare Pressure Controllers, Sweep Gas Sources, Blow down, Equipment Depressurization, Catalyst Regeneration incidents etc.
Features:
- An MS-Excel based model with graphical user interface allows easy navigation.
- VBA programming enables quick calculations and rapid model execution.
- Seamless synthesis of theory based calculations and actual plant data to reflect reality.
- Flexible time period selection.
- Automated operation to save time.
- Daily, Monthly & Annual report generation customizable as per
environmental regulatory authority requirement.
