| (54) | A method of disposing of waste gas and means for carrying out such a method |
| (57) A flare stack tip assembly serves to discharge waste gas for disposal by combustion.
The assembly has an upper frusto-conical tip structure (8) to which a plurality of
injector devices (16) are mounted. Each of the injector devices (16) is supplied with
steam which flows through a protected annular passageway (41) therein. The annular
flow of steam in each device (16) induces ambient air to flow into an open inlet of
the device and to mix with the surrounding steam for discharge into the waste gas
passing up through the assembly prior to combustion. |
