Eneraque was engaged to design, engineer, and install two 20MW gas flares at an underground coal mine, addressing the need to safely and efficiently manage waste gases produced during mining operations. Each gas flare package was custom-engineered to include an advanced gas extraction blower, a water knockout system to remove moisture, and a 20MW enclosed gas flare capable of combusting waste gases with an efficiency of 99.9%. This setup plays a crucial role in reducing harmful emissions and ensuring compliance with environmental regulations.
The project involved working closely with the client to meet their specific requirements, delivering a robust, reliable solution that would operate under the demanding conditions of an underground mining environment. Eneraque’s expertise ensured the design was optimised for performance and longevity, providing both safety and environmental benefits through efficient gas handling and combustion.
Project Highlights
Custom Design to Client Specification: Eneraque tailored the system design to meet the client’s operational needs and site conditions, ensuring seamless integration with the existing infrastructure.
Plant Design: Comprehensive design services included gas flare system engineering, site layout, and detailed technical drawings to ensure optimal performance and safety.
Procurement and Logistics: Eneraque managed the procurement of all critical components and coordinated logistics to deliver materials to the remote site on schedule.
Installation: Our experienced team handled the installation of the entire system, ensuring minimal disruption to the mine’s operations.
Commissioning: The gas flares were commissioned successfully, undergoing thorough testing to validate performance and compliance with stringent safety standards.
Training: Detailed operational training was provided to the client’s personnel, ensuring they were fully equipped to manage the system and maintain its efficiency over time.
Ongoing Maintenance and Support: Eneraque committed to providing follow-up maintenance services to ensure the system continues to perform optimally. Our support team remains on hand to address any technical issues or required servicing.
Project Outcome
Eneraque successfully delivered the project on time and within budget, to the full satisfaction of the client. The 20MW gas flare systems are now operational, effectively combusting waste gases and contributing to the mine’s efforts to minimise its environmental impact. This project reinforced Eneraque’s reputation for delivering high-quality engineering solutions in the mining sector, demonstrating our ability to handle complex projects from initial design through to long-term support.
