Abstract: Flare gas is recovered by varying a number of ejector legs that depends on a flare gas flowrate. The ejector legs include ejectors piped in parallel, each ejector has a flare gas inlet and a motive fluid inlet. Flare gas and motive fluid is provided to ejectors by selectively opening or closing valves. The number of ejector legs online is varied to accommodate the amount of flare gas. The controller is also programmed to direct signals to actuators attached to the valves to open or close the valves, or to change the capacity of the ejector legs so they can handle changing flowrates of the flare gas. Included is a flare gas storage system with vessels made with flexible material, when flare gas is evacuated from the vessels, pressure in the vessels is maintained by compressing the vessels with an external force.

Abstract: A flare gas recovery system includes an ejector that receives flare gas from a suction line extending from a flare gas header, and further receives a motive fluid that draws the flare gas into the ejector to be mixed with the motive fluid and discharge a recovered gas into a discharge gas line. A solid oxide fuel cell system receives the recovered gas and includes a fuel cell power module that uses the recovered gas to generate electrical power, an anode exhaust, and a cathode exhaust, a combustor that receives and combusts at least a portion of the anode and cathode exhausts and thereby generates waste heat, and a process gas heat exchanger that receives and converts the waste heat into electrical power.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for implementing an event based retention schedule for a read only file. When a regular file is to be converted to an event based retention read only file, an “event-retain” property may be enabled on the file allowing the feature to be implemented. Then, that file may have its permissions changed to read only. This will allow the file to be changed to a read only file without using a default retention time. Then, once the event is triggered, the retention time may be set so the file can be scheduled for automatic deletion.

Abstract: While operating a compressor system equipped with compression train(s), condensate is collected from within stages of the compression train(s), and directed to a blowdown system. Gas from a later stage of the compression train is routed to the blowdown system and used to drive the condensate to a condensate destination at a pressure that avoids flashing of the condensate until it reaches the condensate destination. Inside the blowdown system the condensate is stored in a tank and directed to parallel piped vessels. Operation of the vessels includes (1) receiving the condensate, (2) pressurization with gas from a later stage of compression, (3) flowing the pressurized condensate from the vessel to the condensation destination, (4) depressurizing the vessel, and (5) repeating steps (1)-(4). A flow of condensate from the blowdown system is continuous by staggering the phases of operation between the two vessels.
