Enclosed Flares
High-Performance Combustion Systems for Emissions Control and Waste Gas Management
Thruster Technologies designs and manufactures Enclosed Flares engineered to deliver reliable waste gas destruction while meeting the industry's most stringent environmental and operational requirements. Built for landfill gas, biogas, renewable natural gas (RNG), wastewater treatment, and industrial waste gas applications, our enclosed flares provide dependable combustion performance, low emissions, and exceptional operating reliability.
Each system is engineered to achieve or exceed applicable regulatory requirements for destruction and removal efficiency (DRE), while minimizing NOx, CO, and other combustion byproducts. Advanced combustion technology, precision airflow management, and intelligent control systems ensure consistent performance across a wide range of gas compositions and operating conditions.
Advanced Combustion Engineering
At the heart of every Thruster Technologies Enclosed Flare is a combustion system engineered for efficiency, stability, and long service life.
Our proprietary burner designs are optimized for each application to provide:
- Stable combustion across varying gas compositions
- Low NOx and carbon monoxide (CO) emissions
- High destruction and removal efficiency (DRE)
- Low burner and manifold pressure requirements
- Quiet operation
- Reliable performance over wide operating turndown ranges
Constructed entirely from stainless steel with Multi-Stage Venturi technology, our burner assemblies are designed to withstand continuous operation in demanding industrial environments.
Engineered for Regulatory Compliance
Environmental compliance is fundamental to every flare system we build.
Thruster Technologies Enclosed Flares are designed to satisfy federal, state, and local air quality regulations and support compliance verification using established EPA and industry-approved testing methods.
Whether your project requires remediation, routine gas destruction, or continuous operation, our combustion systems are engineered to provide dependable, repeatable emissions performance throughout the life of the equipment.
