stu,

As per API 521 you may decide to discharge HC's or other flammable or hazardous vapours to the atmosphere rather than flare provided that following issues not to be occured:

- Formation of flammable mixtures at grade level or on elevated structures
- Exposure of personnel to toxic vapours or corrosive chemicals
- Ignition of relief systems at the point of emmision
- Excessive noise levels
- Air pollution
