Abstract
Analysis of the chemical composition of settled dust near the source of flare emissions
Incoming article date: 10.04.2021The article discusses the impact of emissions into the atmosphere, formed as a result of combustion of associated petroleum gas, on the chemical composition of settled dust near the gas torch. The paper presents full-scale studies of the emissions of a torch operating near a settlement, the chemical composition of particles in the obtained samples of settled dust is studied. In the course of the work, the results obtained were compared with research data obtained for areas where there is no flare combustion. As a result of this comparison, it was concluded that flare emissions have a significant impact on the chemical composition of settled dust in the vicinity of existing flare systems.
