Water-energy-environment nexus was employed in a sample city for flare gas recovery while the reliability of downstream installation is taken into account. First, considering the average characteristics of a house, water and energy demands were estimated. The residential section's water and energy demands were then supplied using flare gas recovery from an oil field near the city. The study was conducted in two scenarios based on meeting the total annual electricity demand and the residential sector's total annual natural gas demand. A hybrid system including a natural-gas liquid refinery, a gas turbine power plant, a heat recovery steam generator, and multi-effect desalination was proposed as downstream installations. By system reliability's consideration using the Markov technique, a novel integrated model was developed to assess different proposed scenarios. In both scenarios, the water and energy shortages could be provided by the network, and the surplus can be sold to the network. It was shown that considering the reliability of technology significantly affects the final configuration of flare gas recovery technology. It was shown that consideration of employed installations' reliability affects the proposed flare gas recovery technologies' features. Accordingly, the first scenario with a capital cost of 236.94 M$ and a product sales income of 93.31 M$, with 1.3 years of return payback period, was selected as the best solution.

在一个采样城市中，水能与环境之间的联系被用于火炬气的回收，同时考虑了下游安装的可靠性。首先，考虑到房屋的平均特征，估计了水和能源的需求。然后，通过从城市附近的油田回收火炬气来满足住宅区的水和能源需求。这项研究是在满足年度总电力需求和住宅部门年度天然气总需求的两种情况下进行的。提出了一种混合系统，包括天然气液体精炼厂，燃气轮机发电厂，热回收蒸汽发生器和多效脱盐装置，作为下游设备。考虑使用马尔可夫技术的系统可靠性，开发了一种新颖的集成模型来评估不同的拟议方案。在这两种情况下，网络都可以解决水和能源短缺的问题，多余的部分可以卖给网络。结果表明，考虑技术的可靠性会显着影响火炬气回收技术的最终配置。结果表明，考虑所用设备的可靠性会影响拟议中的火炬气回收技术的功能。因此，最佳方案选择了第一种方案，该方案的资本成本为23694万美元，产品销售收入为9331万美元，投资回收期为1.3年。结果表明，考虑技术的可靠性会显着影响火炬气回收技术的最终配置。结果表明，考虑所用设备的可靠性会影响拟议中的火炬气回收技术的功能。因此，最佳方案选择了第一种方案，该方案的资本成本为23694万美元，产品销售收入为9331万美元，投资回收期为1.3年。结果表明，考虑技术的可靠性会显着影响火炬气回收技术的最终配置。结果表明，考虑所用设备的可靠性会影响拟议中的火炬气回收技术的功能。因此，最佳方案选择了第一种方案，该方案的资本成本为23694万美元，产品销售收入为9331万美元，投资回收期为1.3年。
