چکیده

iran’s vast common natural gas resources and the necessity to extract and export it as liquefied natural gas (lng) to distances more than 3000km opens a lucrative field for researchers to optimize lng cycles. in this article heat integration in cryogenic cycles by determining interacycle partition temperature and optimizing refrigeration features like subcooler, presaturator, aftercooler, reboiler, superheater and economizer is investigated to reduce compressor shaftwork. better conceptual understanding of design improvement is illustrated on composite¬ curve (cc) and exergetic grand composite curves (egcc) of pinch-exergy analysis diagrams. a program (lng-pro) is developed by integrating visual basic application, refprop(reference fluid thermodynamic and transport properties) and excel minlp solver to automate the methodology on an lng plant with the capacity equal to a south pars gas field phase. shaftwork is step by step reduced from 1479.36kj/kg to 1255.5kj/kg and 1158.8kj/kg which is 2.46% less than required energy for liquefaction in lng industry.

Optimal Synthesis of a Cascade Refrigeration System of LNG Through MINLP Model for Pure Refrigerant Cycles

 liquefied natural gas (LNG) is the most economical way of transporting natural gas (NG) over long distances. Liquefaction of NG by using vapor compression refrigeration system requires high operating and capital cost. Due to lack of systematic design methods for multistage refrigeration cycles, the conventional approaches of determining optimal cycle configuration are mostly based on trial-an...

Exergoeconomic Evaluation of an Integrated Nitrogen Rejection Unit with LNG and NGL Co-Production Processes Based on the MFC and Absorbtion Refrigeration Systems

Natural gas is often associated with nitrogen and heavy compounds. The Heavy components in the natural gas not only can feed downstream units, owing to the low temperature process may be formed solid as well. Therefore, heavy components separation can be a necessity and produce useful products. Virtually, all natural gases are containing nitrogen ​​that would lower the heating value of natural ...

Superstructure of Cogeneration of Power, Heating, Cooling and Liquid Fuels Using Gasification of Feedstock with Primary Material of Coal for Employing in LNG Process

Using absorption refrigeration cycles instead of vapor compression refrigeration cycles can drastically decrease energy consumption. In these systems, high level of energy consumption is reduced due to the partially elimination of vapor compression refrigeration systems. On the other hand, utilization of waste heat of the plant, which is a very good opportunity for energy saving,  is possible. ...
