Introduction API 521 - ISO 23251 Definition: Vessel in the effluent handling system designed to remove and store liquids. Function of Flare Knockout Drum: To separate liquid from gas and hold maximum amount of liquid relieved in an emergency. KO drum is typically located close to the flare stack upstream of any liquid seal. Unit knockout drums: For process units which possibly release large amount of liquid, it is desirable to have local KO drums inside the battery limit. This reduces the sizing requirements for the main flare knockout drum. Knockout drum can be horizontal or vertical. 2
Design Parameters 1.
Liquid droplet size limited to 300 to 600 µm to avoid burning liquid outside the flame envelope.
2.
Maximum liquid hold up must be considered for vapor-liquid disengagement calculations.
3.
In addition to liquid holdup, liquids that previously accumulated in the drum and not pumped out (slop) should be taken into account.
4.
API 521 recommends a minimum of 20 to 30 minutes holdup time. Longer Holdup might be required if it takes longer to stop flow.
5.
Maximum vapor release may not coincide with the maximum liquid release.
3
Design Parameters 6.
Typically the relief rates (not rated capacities) used for flare header, flare tip, and knockout drum design.
7.
It is normally not necessary to size local knockout drums for efficient vapor-liquid separation at maximum flow rate.
8.
The economics of the drum design can influence the choice between horizontal and vertical drums. ●
Horizontal drums are more suitable for large liquid capacity and high vapor flow. They have lower pressure drop than vertical drums.
●
Vertical drums are typically used when the liquid load is low or limited plot space is available.
4
Design Parameters 9.
Nozzle Configurations: a)
Horizontal Drums: ●
Vapor entering at one end and exiting at the top of the opposite end.
●
Vapor entering at each end and exiting at the center.
● Vapor entering at the center and exiting at each end of the drum. b)
Vertical Drums: ●
Vapor entering radially and exiting at the top of the drum. A baffle is required to direct the flow downward.
●
Vapor entering tangentially and exiting at the top of the drum. 5
Knockout Drum Sizing Sizing a knockout drum is a trial-and-error process. 1st step is to determine drum size for liquid separation. Liquid particles separate: When vapor velocity is sufficiently low to allow the liquid dropout to fall. When the vapor residence time is equal or greater than the time required for the liquid particles to travel the available height at dropout velocity (liquid dropout time). The vertical height is usually taken as the distance from the top of the drum to the maximum liquid level.

Definition Either the lower level tap or where pump(s) stop. Calculated based on slop volume. Calculated based on the holdup time (20-30 minutes) Calculated based on “Additional Holdup Volume”. Normally the second pump (if applicable) starts at this level. Emergency Shut Down (if effective). Calculated from HLL to the top of drum. 30
