Abstract
A system and process for intermittently venting combustible gas (c-gas) from a continuous source to the atmosphere are presented. The system includes a primary c-gas storage tank, at least one primary admission valve located upstream of the primary c-gas storage tank for regulating the flow of c-gas from the continuous source to the storage tank, a primary valve for atmospheric venting located downstream of the primary c-gas storage tank, and a primary PIC that opens the primary valve for atmospheric venting when pressure in the primary c-gas storage tank reaches a pre-determined PIC vent point. The system may include an auxiliary system to receive and vent c-gas while the primary admission valve is closed. The primary and auxiliary systems may also include an inert gas storage tank and inert gas valve for diluting the c-gas before it is vented to the atmosphere.
