摘要
To avoid potential human casualties and environmental pollution,flowout gas from sulphuric gas wells showing high concentrations of volatile gas must be neutralized by controlled ignition.Simulation model is built by using CFD software for flowout gas,and ignition methods are analyzed.The simulation results indicate that the optimal ignition zone is located between 150mm and 570mm above the gas flowout device.Two ignition methods,electronical and chemical,are developed.12 and 6 experimental tests are performed respectively for these two methods.Results from the above tests verify that both approaches are successful in igniting the gas promptly and safely.In addition,our experience proves that the former way is more suitable for the fixed position ignition case,while the latter is more suitable for the long-distance or emergent ignition case.These two approaches can potentially be applied to a wide range of situations other than the fixed position ignition case and long distance ignition case.
