landfill. The header loops around the landfill and then connects to the blowers at <br /> the flare station. When the LFG system is on, the blowers impose vacuum on the <br /> LFG wells through the piping network and extracts LFG into the flare. The LFG is <br /> burned in the flare in accordance with the SJVAPCD permit conditions. <br /> Each LFG extraction well is provided with an adjustment valve and sampling port <br /> for the adjustment. The vacuum at each well is adjusted based on the <br /> concentration of methane in the gas collected at the well. <br /> LFG condensate collects at low points in the header, from where the condensate <br /> is pumped to the flare station by automatic pneumatic condensate sumps. <br /> 1.3.A FLARE SYSTEM <br /> The LFG flare is a "Triton" model manufactured Landfill Gas and Energy <br /> (LFG&E) on a prefabricated skid. The major components of the flare skid <br /> are: <br /> a. Flare control and monitoring instrumentation <br /> b. Knock-out pot (KOP) <br /> c. Two multi-stage centrifugal suction blowers. The blowers are <br /> connected in parallel configuration and one blower operates at a time <br /> while the other is used as a standby. <br /> d. Flame arrestor <br /> e. Enclosed flare. <br /> f. Compressed air supply, including: <br /> i. Reciprocating air compressor <br /> ii. Refrigerant dryer <br /> ' iii. Coalescing and particulate filters. <br /> g. Condensate injection system. Condensate collected in the LFG <br /> headers is pumped from the LFG piping to a 1000-gallon condensate <br /> ' storage tank located in the flare station. Condensate is burned in the <br /> flare by high pressure injection in mist form. The injection flow rate is <br /> set to the maximum allowed per SJVAPCD permit. The volume of <br /> condensate burned in the flare is recorded monthly. <br /> A detailed description of equipment and components on the flare skid is <br /> ' provided in CHSL's Triton Gas Flare System operation and maintenance <br /> (O&M) manual, available on request. <br /> 2.0 OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE <br /> From 2001, O&M of CHSL's LFGCS has been a part of the Landfill's postclosure <br /> ' maintenance. Monitoring, maintenance, and reporting of the LFGCS is in accordance <br /> LFG Operation And Maintenance Plan San Joaquin County <br /> Corral Hollow Sanitary Landfill 3 Public Works Department <br /> October 26,2012 Solid Waste Division <br />
