TH3050A - The liquefied natural gas cycle at intense flashover - Google Patents

Abstract

Systems for making liquids And the less chilled natural gas where the compressed power is moved from the closed circuit refrigerant. The liquefied natural gas is less cold. To correlate with the warm temperature at that time And later reduce the pressure And flashed liquefied natural gas To separate natural gas in a gas condition in excess of the plant's fuel requirements. The excess will be re-compressed and returned to the feeder through this process.

Claims (3)

1. In the process for producing liquefied natural gas Where the fed natural gas is liquefied And to cool less by exchanging heat with at least one closed circuit refrigerant. The improvements include eliminating the problem of mismatched air compressor drives. The liquefaction process is inefficient. Or the high cost of procuring equipment This can be done by cooling liquefied natural gas less to a warmer temperature.
