Refinery Flare Line Accident

This 3D courtroom animation shows the flare line fire that happened at the Valero Refinery in Memphis. The animation introduces the flare line, showing how everything works: gas travels through the flare line and a knockout drum, to the burn off. Next the animation shows what happens when oxygen is introduced during the process, leading to a fire and explosion at the open flange. The last scene repeats the explosion, this time in overhead view allowing the location of employees to be shown.
