PpTek team up with major flare manufacturer to offer low cost mini flare

Whilst most customers installing the BGAK, auto regeneration version of the PpTek siloxane filters system, use the condensing chimney to remove the waste siloxanes and VOC’s, several customers who have very sensitive sites have requested that the regeneration air is burned in a flare.
The normal flares found on landfill sites have a minimum consumption of ~ 600 m3/hr to reach the required temperatures of 1000 Deg C and thus are wasteful of gas that could earn valuable revenue.
Seeing this requirement, PpTek has therefore teamed up with a leading UK flare manufacturer to design and develop a Vent Air Burner (VAB) which acts in the same way as a fully compliant flare, but is low cost and only consumes ~ 30 - 50 m3/hr of gas whilst in regeneration mode of the filters ( 4 hours per day).

David Hayward, Technical Director of PpTek Ltd commented “Although it is by no means necessary for all site and customers, there are some customers with sensitive sites that will require the safeguards a VAB can offer. The VAB is fully controlled by our standard control panel and therefore is totally self contained on site”
