ABSTRACT:
A safety flare for combustion of waste gases is described which includes a container having an interior and an exterior. The interior is defined by a bottom and peripheral sidewalls. A vent stack extends through the interior of the container. The vent stack has a first end and a second end. The first end communicates with the exterior of the container adjacent the bottom. The second end extends past a top peripheral edge of the peripheral sidewalls of the container. Means is provided for permitting the communication of combustion air with the first end of the vent stack. A burner is positioned immediately surrounding the second end of the vent stack such that the burner is supplied with combustion air by the vent stack. The burner has a plurality of downwardly directed nozzles such that liquids passing through the nozzles fall by force of gravity into the interior of the container. This safety flare is intended to replace flare stacks and flare pits formerly used in the oil and gas industry.
