Air-assisted Flares

About Air-assisted Flares

Efficient, effective, and accessible for sites without other readily available assist mediums.

Our air-assisted flares at Tornado Combustion are designed to eliminate smoke emissions when you’re combusting heavy hydrocarbons, which is a challenge because of their complex chemical structure, high ignition point, and viscosity. Air-assisted flares are a great solution.

The design of an air-assisted flare uses forced air supplied by means of a blower installed at the base. The air mixes with the waste gas at the flare tip, increasing energy and improving combustion.

Why Choose Us

Custom Flare Solutions That Eliminate Smoke and Maximize Efficiency

Poorly made air-assisted flares often fall victim to heavy smoke emissions because heavy hydrocarbons are notoriously difficult to break down.

Unfortunately, this means that many companies who use improperly designed, standardized, or poorly installed flares find themselves dealing with heavy smoke emissions when their systems can’t efficiently handle their combustion.

We aren’t just manufacturers, we’re some of the world’s leading air-assisted flare system engineers, and we custom design and manufacture every flare to suit your site, combustion system, and waste gas composition.

Industries

Who Uses Our Flares

Some industries where air-assisted flares are commonly used include:

  • Refining
  • Petrochemical Processing

  • Chemical Manufacturing

Benefits of Air-Assisted Flares

Clean, Quiet Flare Performance

Our utility flares are ideal for situations where you need to handle heavy hydrocarbon emissions, smokelessly, and include benefits such as:

  • High combustion efficiency
  • Smokeless emissions
  • Low odour emissions
  • Environmental regulation compliance
  • Quiet operation compared to steam-assisted flares

Replacements

Do You Need a Replacement?

If your air-assisted flare is emitting visible smoke, has an unstable or uneven flame, is giving off odors, or has any visible deficiencies like sagging or corrosion, you should contact us about a replacement.
