A system for the processing of a hydrocarbon flare gas. An input gas stream contains a gas component and a liquid component. A knock-out drum separates the gas component from the liquid component. An eductor has a motive inlet, a suction inlet, and a discharge outlet. The separated liquid component is introduced into the suction inlet of the eductor. A high- pressure gas stream is introduced into the motive inlet of the eductor. The high-pressure gas stream has a pressure sufficient to draw the separated liquid component from the knock-out drum and through the discharge outlet. La présente invention concerne un système pour le traitement de gaz de torche d'hydrocarbures. Un courant gazeux d'entrée contient un composant gazeux et un composant liquide. Un séparateur sépare le composant gazeux du composant liquide. Un éjecteur comporte une entrée motrice, une entrée d'aspiration et une sortie d'évacuation. Le composant liquide séparé est introduit dans l'entrée d'aspiration de l'éjecteur. Un flux gazeux à haute pression est introduit dans l'entrée motrice de l'éjecteur. Le flux gazeux à haute pression possède une pression suffisante pour attirer, à travers la sortie d'évacuation, le composant liquide séparé provenant du séparateur.
