'Flare tower' used in industry is meant for_____________________?
Correct answer: C. Venting off (after burning) the excess inflammable/toxic gases at high pressure
- A. Cooling of furnace exhaust gases
- B. Absorbing the pollutant gases from the furnace exhaust
- C. Venting off (after burning) the excess inflammable/toxic gases at high pressure
- D. None of these
Explanation
A flare tower safely burns excess inflammable or toxic gases before discharging the combustion products, preventing dangerous pressure buildup and direct release of hazardous gases. It is not primarily an absorber or gas cooler.
