Description
Summary:During operations in the oil industry, the burning of gas in torches is common, it is normally a symbol of stable production, but the burning of these components creates emissions that are harmful to the environment. Meanwhile, with the flaring of these gases, there is a usable resource that is usually wasted, the flaring gas has components with a large amount of calorific value, an important measure that quantifies the energy that can potentially be gained from this wasted resource. The objective of this work is to evaluate the energy utility of the flared gas, estimating the possible energy produced with this usable resource by modeling a treatment process and energy generation using the Aspen HYSYS® simulator.
