Flare system

Just an idea but it would be great to have a flare system that could burn off unwanted gases. For example, with the introduction of "sour gas" to the game, something must be done with the sulfur, in the real world sulfur is sold from refineries to other companies that use it in their production or it is burned at low percentages and vented to the atmosphere. The flare could be used to get rid of gases or liquids by vaporizing them before burning them, the heat from the flare could be used for other applications and a natural gas line could be connected as the "fuel" with another gas line for material you want to burn. Many times I find myself stuffing unwanted or unusable gases or liquids into storage tanks but it takes up space that could be used for other things. Again, it's just an idea but it would be helpful.

Are you aware that you can already get rid of unwanted gases and liquids by exposing them to space?

Sure you can suck them out with a vacuum and that's a simple and easy fix but it's also wasted potential. If you're going to get rid of it why not get some use out of it? You could burn off the undesirables and use the heat for steam generation or whatever else floats your boat.
