Description

[0001] DESCRIPTION [0002] Gas treatment systems and vessels [0003]

The present invention relates to a gas treatment system and a vessel.

A ship is a means of transporting large quantities of minerals, crude oil, natural gas, or more than a thousand containers. It is made of steel and buoyant to float on the water surface. ≪ / RTI >

Such a ship generates thrust by driving an engine or a gas turbine. At this time, the engine uses a fuel such as gasoline or diesel to move the piston so that the crankshaft is rotated by the reciprocating motion of the piston, and a shaft connected to the crankshaft While the gas turbine is driven by the combustion of the fuel with compressed air, and the turbine blades are rotated through the temperature / pressure of the combustion air to generate power and transfer power to the propeller.

In recent years, however, LNG carriers have been used as fuel for LNG carriers. LNG carriers have been used to drive demand for engines and turbines. Is applied to ships other than LNG carriers.

Generally, it is known that LNG is a clean fuel and its reserves are more abundant than petroleum, and its usage is rapidly increasing as mining and transfer technology develops. This LNG is generally stored in a liquid state at a temperature of -162 ° C. or below under 1 atm. The volume of liquefied methane is about one sixth of the volume of methane in a gaseous state, The specific gravity is 0.42, which is about one half of that of crude oil.

However, the temperature and pressure required to drive demand can differ from the state of the LNG stored in the tank. Therefore, in recent years, research and development have been conducted on technologies for controlling the temperature and pressure of LNG stored in a liquid state and supplying it to customers.

Further, since the liquefied gas is stored in a liquefied gas storage tank in a forced liquefied state, the liquefied gas stored in the liquefied gas storage tank can not be completely isolated from the liquefied gas stored in the liquefied gas storage tank Which is a gas phase.

When the internal pressure of the liquefied gas storage tank exceeds the pressure that can be tolerated by the liquefied gas storage tank, the liquefied gas storage tank The tank may be damaged.

Therefore, conventionally, in order to keep the internal pressure of the liquefied gas storage tank at a constant level, a method has been used in which the evaporation gas is discharged to the outside to lower the internal pressure of the liquefied gas storage tank, if necessary. Or the evaporation gas was discharged to the outside of the liquefied gas storage tank, and then liquefied by using a separate liquefaction device and then recovered again into the liquefied gas storage tank.

However, when the evaporation gas is merely discharged to the outside, a problem of contamination of the external environment may occur, and in the case of using the re-liquefaction device, there arises a problem such as a cost and manpower required for installing and operating the liquefaction device. Therefore, there is a need to develop an effective treatment method of evaporated gas generated by external heat penetration.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a condenser for condensing an evaporation gas using a liquefied gas so that the evaporation gas can be recycled without being discharged to the outside And to provide a gas treatment system and a vessel that are capable of operating at high speed.

1 and 2, a gas processing system 1 according to a first embodiment of the present invention includes a liquefied gas storage tank 10, a liquefied gas supply unit 20, an evaporation gas supply unit 30, A condenser 50, a condenser bypass portion 60, an oil supply portion 70, and a control portion 90. The condenser bypass portion 60, the condenser bypass portion 60,

The liquefied gas storage tank 10 stores liquefied gas. The stored liquefied gas may be supplied to and consumed by the customer 100. The customer 100 may be a marine propulsion engine (or turbine) and does not limit high pressure, medium pressure, or low pressure.

A plurality of demanders 100 may be provided and include a high-pressure consumer 101 and a low-pressure consumer 103. The high-pressure consumer 101 may be an ME-GI engine having a required pressure of 200 to 400 bar or an XDF engine having a required pressure of 15 to 50 bar, and the low-pressure consumer 103 may be a DFDE engine having a required pressure of about 10 bar have. Of course, the XDF engine may also be referred to as a separate intermediate-pressure consumer 100 that is distinguished from the high-pressure consumer 101.

A gas valve train 102 is provided upstream of the high-pressure customer 101 to control the supply of liquefied gas and the like. A gas valve unit 104 is provided upstream of the low-pressure customer 103 to supply liquefied gas and the like Can be adjusted.

In addition, the customer 100 may be a boiler (BLR), a gas-fired unit (GCU), or the like, or a city gas or a variety of engines (or turbines) provided on the land or the like. That is, the customer 100 refers to all the configurations for consuming the liquefied gas or the evaporated gas of the liquefied gas storage tank 10.

The liquefied gas storage tank 10 must store the liquefied gas in a liquid state, wherein the liquefied gas storage tank 10 can store the liquefied gas at a pressure of 1 bar to 10 bar (1.03 bar, for example).

The liquefied gas storage tank 10 may be a stand-alone type, a membrane type, and the like. The liquefied gas may be stored in a liquid state using various heat insulating structures. The evaporated gas generated in the liquefied gas storage tank 10 may be, The evaporative gas compressor 32 or the like.

The internal pressure of the liquefied gas storage tank 10 measured by the pressure gauge 11 may be utilized for control of the control unit 90. The internal pressure of the liquefied gas storage tank 10 may be a pressure gauge 11,

Since the liquefied gas is stored in the liquefied gas storage tank 10, the evaporated gas in which the liquefied gas has spontaneously evaporated is continuously generated in the liquefied gas storage tank 10. In this case, since the internal pressure of the liquefied gas storage tank 10 may be excessive unless the evaporation gas is taken out, the present embodiment can condense and return the evaporated gas generated in the liquefied gas storage tank 10 to the condenser 50. Therefore, the internal pressure of the liquefied gas storage tank 10 is maintained at an appropriate level.

The liquefied gas supply unit 20 delivers the liquefied gas from the liquefied gas storage tank 10 to the customer 100. The liquefied gas supply unit 20 can transfer the liquefied gas to the high pressure consumer 101 and the low pressure consumer 103 and the liquefied gas supply unit 20 supplies the liquefied gas to the liquefied gas supply line 21, a liquefied gas pump 22, and a liquefied gas heat exchanger 23.

The liquefied gas supply line 21 is connected from the liquefied gas storage tank 10 to the high pressure consumer 101. One end of the liquefied gas supply line 21 may be provided inside the liquefied gas storage tank 10 and a boosting pump 211 may be provided at one end of the liquefied gas supply line 21.

In the liquefied gas supply line 21, a liquefied gas pump 22 and a liquefied gas heat exchanger 23 may be provided in order. The liquefied gas is discharged from the liquefied gas storage tank 10 along the liquefied gas supply line 21 and then is pressurized by the liquefied gas pump 22 to the high pressure and supplied to the liquefied gas heat exchanger 23 by the demand of the high pressure consumer 101 And is then delivered to the high-pressure consumer 101 via the gas valve train 102. [

The liquefied gas supply line 21 may be provided with a valve (not shown) for controlling the flow rate, pressure, etc., and the opening of the valve may be controlled by the control unit 90.

The liquefied gas pump 22 is provided in the liquefied gas supply line 21 and pressurizes the liquefied gas at a high pressure. The pressure at which the liquefied gas pump 22 pressurizes the liquefied gas may vary depending on the required pressure of the consumer 100.

The liquefied gas pump 22 is provided in the liquefied gas supply line 21 downstream of the booster pump 211. The liquefied gas pump 22 receives the liquefied gas pressurized by the booster pump 211 at a low pressure, It is possible to pressurize. At this time, the pressure of the liquefied gas flowing into the liquefied gas pump 22 may correspond to the required pressure of the low-pressure consumer 103.

The liquefied gas heat exchanger 23 is provided in the liquefied gas supply line 21 downstream of the liquefied gas pump 22. The liquefied gas heat exchanger 23 can heat the liquefied gas using the heat.

The liquefied gas heat exchanger 23 can be connected to a heat transferring line 231. The heat transferring line 231 is connected to a heat pump 232 for pumping heat and a heat pump heater 233 for heating the heat with a heat source such as steam And a fruit tank 234 for temporarily storing fruit passing through the liquefied gas heat exchanger 23 may be provided in the fruit circulation line 231. [

At this time, the fruit circulation line 231 may have a parallel structure at least partially so that at least a part of the fruits may bypass the fruit heater 233, and the fruit pump 232 may be provided in parallel and can be backed up to each other.

Of course, the heat used in the liquefied gas heat exchanger 23 is not particularly limited, and therefore, the configuration for transferring the heat to the liquefied gas heat exchanger 23 is not limited to the above-described configurations.

The liquefied gas supply unit 20 may further include a low pressure liquefied gas supply line 24, a forced vaporizer 25, a gas-liquid separator 26, and a heater 27 to deliver the liquefied gas to the low- have. The forced vaporizer 25, the gas-liquid separator 26 and the heater 27 provided in the low-pressure liquefied gas supply line 24 are connected to the liquefied gas pump 22 provided in the liquefied gas supply line 21 and the liquefied gas heat exchanger (23).

The low-pressure liquefied gas supply line 24 branches from the liquefied gas supply line 21 and is connected to the low-pressure demand place 103. The low pressure liquefied gas supply line 24 may be branched from the liquefied gas supply line 21 upstream of the liquefied gas pump 22.

The boosting pump 211 can pressurize the liquefied gas to the required pressure of the low pressure consumer 103 so that the low pressure liquefied gas supply line 24 is able to pressurize the liquefied gas pressurized by the boosting pump 211, (103).

The low-pressure liquefied gas supply line 24 may be branched from the liquefied gas supply line 21 upstream of the condenser 50. The low-pressure consumer 103 can basically consume the evaporation gas and can supplement the liquefied gas. When the liquefied gas is supplied along the low-pressure liquefied gas supply line 24, it means that the evaporation gas is insufficient can do.

When the liquefied gas flows into the condenser 50, heat may be generated in the condenser 50 and the condenser 50 may be damaged. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the low-pressure liquefied gas supply line 24 branches at the upstream of the condenser 50, and when the evaporation gas is insufficient (no evaporation gas flows in the condenser 50), the liquefied gas flows into the condenser 50 And can be transmitted to the low-pressure consumer 103 without going through.

Although the liquefied gas delivered to the high-pressure consumer 101 may possibly go through the condenser 50 in this embodiment, evaporating gas is supplied to the condenser 50 as the liquefied gas bypasses the condenser 50 The condenser 50 can be protected by preventing the cryogenic liquefied gas from flowing through the condenser 50. [

The forced vaporizer 25 is provided in the low-pressure liquefied gas supply line 24 and forcibly vaporizes the liquefied gas. The forced vaporizer 25 can heat the liquefied gas to a temperature equal to or higher than the boiling point by using the heat mentioned in the liquefied gas heat exchanger 23 or various heat sources.

The forced vaporizer 25 can heat the liquefied gas to about -100 degrees. This is a temperature higher than the boiling point of the liquefied gas, but it may be lower than the temperature required by the low-pressure consumer 103. The forced vaporizer 25 heats the liquefied gas to such a temperature is for the adjustment of the methane price.

For example, when the liquefied gas is liquefied natural gas, liquefied gas is mixed with methane as well as heavy carbon such as propane and butane. Since the boiling point of butane and heavy carbon does not exceed -100 deg. C, the forced vaporizer 25 can heat the liquefied gas so that the heavy carbon remains in a liquid phase and the methane and nitrogen are changed to gas phase.

In this case, only part of the liquefied gas passing through the forced vaporizer 25 may be in the gaseous state, and the remaining (heavy carbon) may remain in the liquid state. At this time, the components remaining in the liquid state can be separated in the gas-liquid separator 26.

The gas-liquid separator 26 is provided downstream of the forced vaporizer 25 in the low-pressure liquified gas supply line 24. The gas-liquid separator 26 can separate the heavy carbon remaining in the liquid state in the liquefied gas heated in the forced vaporizer 25, and the separated heavy carbon is returned to the liquefied gas storage tank 10, (100) and consumed.

A high-pressure liquefied gas delivery portion 28 is connected to the gas-liquid separator 26 so that high-pressure liquefied gas having a high methane content can be delivered. The high-pressure liquified gas delivery portion 28 will be described later.

The heater 27 is provided downstream of the gas-liquid separator 26 in the low-pressure liquified gas supply line 24. As described above, the forced vaporizer 25 heats the liquefied gas to vaporize, but can heat to a temperature lower than the required temperature of the low-pressure consumer 103 for separation of the heavy carbon. Thus, the heater 27 can raise the liquefied gas from which the heavy carbon is separated in the gas-liquid separator 26 to the required temperature of the low-pressure consumer 103.

The heat source used in the heater 27 may be a heat source used in the forced vaporizer 25 or a heat source used in the liquefied gas heat exchanger 23 or the like. In other words, in the present embodiment, configurations requiring a heat source can share the heat sources with each other. Of course, the kind of the heat source and whether or not it is shared in the present invention are not particularly limited.

The liquefied gas supply unit 20 may further include a high-pressure liquefied gas delivery unit 28. The high-pressure liquefied gas delivery portion 28 delivers at least a portion of the liquefied gas pressurized by the liquefied gas pump 22 to the high-pressure gas to the gas-liquid separator 26.

The low pressure customer 103 may be a customer 100 that is operated by a DFDE engine or the like and whose operation efficiency varies depending on the methane price. That is, the low-pressure consumer 103 may be configured to consume gas having a high methane price.

The low-pressure consumer 103 can basically be operated by consuming the evaporated gas, and can be operated by supplementally consuming the liquefied gas. However, due to factors such as a decrease in the storage amount of the liquefied gas stored in the liquefied gas storage tank 10, the liquefied gas supplied along the evaporation gas and the low-pressure liquefied gas supply line 24 may not be supplied to the low- You may not have enough methane.

Thus, in this embodiment, methane gas can be adjusted by mixing a high-pressure liquefied gas with an evaporation gas. The high-pressure liquefied gas can be delivered to the low-pressure consumer 103 through the gas-liquid separator 26.

The high pressure liquefied gas delivery portion 28 may comprise a high pressure liquefied gas delivery line 281 connected to the gas-liquid separator 26 or the low-pressure liquefied gas supply line 24 in the liquefied gas supply line 21 .

Through the high-pressure liquefied gas delivery line 281, high-pressure liquefied gas in the liquefied gas supply line 21 can be delivered to the low-pressure liquefied gas supply line 24. In this case, the methane level of the gas supplied to the low-pressure consumer 103 can be adjusted by the high-pressure liquefied gas.

The high-pressure liquefied gas transfer line 281 can be connected to the gas-liquid separator 26 from the liquefied gas supply line 21 at the downstream side of the liquefied gas pump 22 and at least the upstream and downstream of the liquefied gas heat exchanger 23 Liquid separator 26 from the liquefied gas supply line 21 on one side.

The load of the heater 27 can be reduced when the high-pressure liquefied gas delivery line 281 delivers the high-pressure high-temperature liquefied gas to the gas-liquid separator 26 downstream of the liquefied gas heat exchanger 23. The high-pressure liquefied gas delivery line 281 is connected to the low-pressure liquefied gas supply line 284 downstream of the gas-liquid separator 26 to prevent the heavy carbon from vaporizing as the liquefied gas of high temperature flows into the gas- (Not shown).

However, the high-pressure liquefied gas may be pressurized by the liquefied gas pump 22 in accordance with the pressure demanded by the high-pressure consumer 101. Accordingly, in the high-pressure liquefied gas delivery line 281, a liquefied-gas reducing valve 282 may be provided.

The liquefied gas reducing valve 282 can reduce the liquefied gas that has been pressurized by the liquefied gas pump 22 at a high pressure to meet the required pressure of the low pressure consumer 103. That is, the liquefied gas reducing valve 282 can reduce the liquefied gas by the difference between the required pressure of the high-pressure consumer 101 and the required pressure of the low-pressure consumer 103.

The liquefied gas pressure reducing valve 282 is connected to the liquefied gas heat exchanger 23 at the upstream side of the liquefied gas heat exchanger 23 when the high-pressure liquefied gas transmission line 281 is connected to the gas-liquid separator 26, Pressure liquefied gas delivery line 281 branched from the line 21 and a high-pressure liquefied gas delivery line 281 branched from the liquefied gas supply line 21 downstream of the liquefied gas heat exchanger 23 .

Thus, the high-pressure liquefied gas delivery portion 28 controls the methane price of the gas supplied to the low-pressure consumer 103 by transferring the high-pressure liquefied gas to the low-pressure consumer 103 after decompression, Can be guaranteed. Further, when the high-pressure liquefied gas delivery portion 28 lowers the pressure of the high-pressure liquefied gas, the power can be generated by using an inflator (not shown).

The evaporation gas supply unit (30) delivers the evaporated gas of the liquefied gas storage tank (10) to the customer (100). In the liquefied gas storage tank 10, there is a vaporized gas naturally vaporized due to factors such as heat penetration from the outside as described above.

At this time, the evaporated gas can be discharged from the liquefied gas storage tank 10 and supplied to the low pressure consumer 103, so that the internal pressure of the liquefied gas storage tank 10 can be maintained at an appropriate level. For this purpose, the evaporation gas supply unit 30 includes an evaporation gas supply line 31, an evaporation gas compressor 32, and an evaporation gas preheater 33.

The evaporation gas supply line 31 is connected from the liquefied gas storage tank 10 to the low pressure consumer 103. The evaporation gas supply line 31 can transfer the evaporation gas generated in the liquefied gas storage tank 10 to the low pressure consumer 103 and the evaporation gas preheater 33 and the evaporation gas compressor 32 May be provided in series.

A low-pressure liquefied gas supply line (24) may be connected to the evaporation gas supply line (31). The low pressure liquefied gas passing through the forced vaporizer 25, the gas-liquid separator 26 and the heater 27 can be joined to the evaporated gas compressed by the evaporative gas compressor 32 and supplied to the low pressure consumer 103.

The evaporation gas recovery line 41 of the evaporation gas recovery unit 40 may be connected to the evaporation gas supply line 31 upstream of the low pressure consumer 103. The evaporation gas recovery line 41 receives excess evaporation gas that can not be consumed by the low pressure consumer 103 from the evaporation gas supplied to the low pressure consumer 103 along the evaporation gas supply line 31, (10). The evaporative gas recovery unit 40 will be described later.

The evaporation gas compressor (32) is provided in the evaporation gas supply line (31) and compresses the evaporation gas. A plurality of the evaporative gas compressors 32 may be provided in series and may be configured in multiple stages, and / or a plurality of the evaporative gas compressors 32 may be provided in parallel so as to be capable of being backed up with each other.

The evaporation gas compressor 32 can compress the evaporation gas to the required pressure of the low pressure consumer 103. However, when the evaporation gas is compressed, the evaporation gas may be heated by the heat of compression and the volume may expand. To prevent this, an intermediate cooler (not shown) may be provided downstream of the evaporation gas compressor 32. The intermediate cooler may be provided downstream of each of the plurality of evaporative gas compressors 32 provided in multiple stages.

The evaporated gas compressed by the evaporative gas compressor 32 is delivered to the low pressure consumer 103 where the evaporated gas is mixed with the low pressure liquefied gas and then supplied to the low pressure consumer 103 have.

However, since the temperature of the evaporation gas supplied to the low-pressure consumer 103 may not meet the required temperature of the low-pressure consumer 103 due to the mixing of the low-pressure liquefied gas and the cooling by the compression heat and the intermediate cooler, The evaporation gas supply line 31 is provided with an evaporation gas heater (not shown) upstream of the evaporation gas supply line 31 to adjust the temperature of the evaporation gas to the required temperature of the low pressure consumer 103.

The evaporation gas return line 321 may be provided in the evaporation gas supply line 31 so that some evaporation gas is returned to the upstream side of the evaporation gas compressor 32 downstream of the evaporation gas compressor 32. The evaporation gas return line 321 can regulate the flow rate of the evaporation gas supplied to the low pressure consumer 103 among the evaporation gases compressed in the evaporation gas compressor 32.

Also, the evaporation gas compressor 32 can control the unloading to lower the compression load, and can adjust the suction amount of the evaporation gas by using an inlet guide vane or the like. This control can be performed by the control unit 90, which will be described later.

The evaporation gas preheater 33 preheats the evaporation gas. The evaporative gas preheater 33 is provided upstream of the evaporative gas compressor 32 to preheat the evaporative gas discharged from the liquefied gas storage tank 10 into the evaporative gas compressor 32, Or the heat source used in the forced vaporizer 25 or the liquefied gas heat exchanger 23 or may be a separate heat source.

For example, the evaporative gas preheater 33 may receive at least a portion of the evaporative gas compressed by the evaporative gas compressor 32 to preheat the evaporative gas delivered to the evaporative gas compressor 32. That is, the evaporation gas preheater 33 may be an evaporation gas heat exchanger for exchanging heat with the compressed evaporation gas before the compression.

The evaporated gas recovery unit 40 returns at least a part of the evaporated gas to the liquefied gas storage tank 10 to the consumer 100 (particularly, the low-pressure consumer 103). The evaporated gas recovery unit 40 returns evaporated gas of surplus amount that the consumer 100 can not consume from the evaporated gas supplied to the low pressure consumer 103 by the evaporated gas supply unit 30 to the liquefied gas storage tank 10 .

The evaporation gas recovery unit 40 may include an evaporation gas recovery line 41 branched from the evaporation gas supply line 31 and connected to the liquefied gas storage tank 10. The evaporation gas recovery line 41 may be branched from the evaporation gas supply line 31 downstream of the evaporation gas compressor 32. For example, in the evaporation gas supply line 31, From the evaporation gas supply line 31 at a point downstream of the evaporation gas supply line 31.

Since the evaporated gas recovered along the evaporated gas recovery line 41 is compressed by the evaporated gas compressor 32, the pressure and the temperature may be higher than the liquefied gas storage tank 10. At this time, if the evaporated gas is returned to the liquefied gas storage tank 10 without any additional treatment, the internal pressure of the liquefied gas storage tank 10 may increase and the amount of generated evaporation gas may increase.

However, since the evaporation gas recovery line 41 is provided with a condenser 50 to be described later and the evaporation gas flowing along the evaporation gas recovery line 41 is recovered to the liquefied gas storage tank 10 at a low temperature, It is possible to prevent the internal pressure of the liquefied gas storage tank 10 from rising.

In the evaporation gas recovery line 41, an evaporation gas transmission line 45 may be branched. The evaporated gas recovery line 41 is connected to the liquefied gas storage tank 10 to supply the condensed evaporated gas to the liquefied gas storage tank 10. If the evaporated gas is not sufficiently condensed in the condenser 50 , The pressure of the liquefied gas storage tank 10 can be increased when the evaporated gas is recovered to the liquefied gas storage tank 10.

The case where the evaporation gas is not sufficiently condensed in the condenser 50 may be a case where the flow rate of the liquefied gas to be supplied to the condenser 50 is not sufficient and the load of the high pressure consumer 101 is low , And the high-pressure consumer 101 is operating with oil.

At this time, in order to prevent the evaporated gas, which has not been properly condensed in the condenser 50, from flowing into the liquefied gas storage tank 10 because the flow rate of the liquefied gas into the condenser 50 is not sufficient, And an evaporation gas delivery line 45 for delivering the evaporation gas of the low-pressure consumer 103 to the low-

The evaporation gas transmission line 45 is branched at least from upstream and downstream of the condenser 50 in the evaporation gas recovery line 41 and can be connected to the evaporation gas supply line 31. The evaporation gas transmission line 45 can be connected to the evaporation gas supply line 31 downstream of the point where the evaporation gas recovery line 41 is branched so that the evaporation gas delivered by the evaporation gas transmission line 45 flows into the condenser 50, and can be consumed in the low-pressure consumer 103.

The control unit 90 may control the flow rate of the evaporation gas flowing into the condenser 50 (the flow rate of the liquefied gas The flow rate of the liquefied gas flowing into the condenser 50 (the flow rate of the liquefied gas), the flow rate of the liquefied gas flowing into the condenser 50 (which can be grasped as the evaporation gas flow rate of the storage tank 10, the internal pressure of the liquefied gas storage tank 10, It is possible to grasp that sufficient condensation of the evaporation gas does not occur based on the flow rate of the liquefied gas in the storage tank 10, the load of the high-pressure consumer 101, and the like, and open the evaporation gas transmission line 45.

Or the control unit 90 may sense the temperature of the evaporation gas downstream of the condenser 50 and open the evaporation gas transmission line 45 when it is determined that the temperature of the evaporation gas is not sufficiently lowered. The control through the flow rate may be a pre-control, and the control through the temperature may be post-control.

The evaporated gas recovery unit 40 connected to the liquefied gas storage tank 10 is configured to store the liquid level of the liquefied gas stored in the liquefied gas storage tank 10 when the condensed evaporated gas is returned to the liquefied gas storage tank 10 It can be returned to the upper side and the lower side by reference.

To this end, the evaporation gas recovery unit 40 may have an upper recovery unit 42 and a lower recovery unit 43. The upper recovery section 42 has an upper recovery line 42 connected to the upper side of the liquefied gas storage tank 10 in the evaporated gas recovery line 41 and is used to store the condensed evaporated gas in the liquefied gas storage tank 10 It can be sprayed from above the liquefied gas.

When the gas-liquid separator 44 for gas-liquid separation of the condensed evaporated gas is provided, the upper recovering portion 42 can eject the separated liquid component from the condensed evaporated gas. Since the liquid component is in a cryogenic state, the temperature of the evaporation gas present in the liquefied gas storage tank 10 can be lowered while being sprayed from above the liquefied gas storage tank 10 to liquefy.

That is, the upper recovery section 42 can liquefy the evaporated gas in the liquefied gas storage tank 10 using the liquefied evaporated gas.

The lower recovery unit 43 has a lower recovery line 43 connected to the lower side of the liquefied gas storage tank 10 in the evaporated gas recovery line 41 and is used to store the condensed evaporated gas in the liquefied gas storage tank 10 It can be delivered in liquefied gas.

When the gas-liquid separator 44 for gas-liquid separation of the condensed evaporated gas is provided, the lower collecting portion 43 can deliver the separated gas component in the condensed evaporated gas. The gas component is cooled by the condenser 50, but may be in a state of less liquefaction. The lower recovery part 43 injects the gaseous component evaporation gas into the liquefied gas of the liquefied gas storage tank 10, The evaporation gas of the gas component can be completely liquefied by the liquefied gas of the storage tank 10. [

That is, the lower recovery section 43 can liquefy the evaporated gas that has not been liquefied in the condenser 50 by using the liquefied gas in the liquefied gas storage tank 10.

The evaporation gas recovery unit 40 may include a gas-liquid separator 44. The gas-liquid separator 44 may be provided in the evaporation gas recovery line 41 to remove vaporized gas condensed in the condenser 50 by gas-liquid separation. At this time, the gas component can be liquefied by being injected into the liquefied gas from the lower side of the liquefied gas storage tank 10 by the lower recovery part 43, and the liquid component can be liquefied by the upper recovery part 42, The liquefied gas in the liquefied gas storage tank 10 can be liquefied.

Therefore, in the present embodiment, when the condensed evaporated gas is recovered, the vaporized liquid is separated and supplied to the inside and the outside of the liquefied gas, so that the condensing efficiency can be greatly improved and the internal pressure of the liquefied gas storage tank 10 can be stabilized.

The condenser 50 (in this specification, the condenser 50 can be interpreted as a re-liquefier) is provided in the liquefied gas supply part 20 and the evaporated gas recovery part 40 and is connected to the liquefied gas storage tank 10) is condensed. The condenser 50 includes a liquefied gas flow path 51 connected to the liquefied gas supply line 21 of the liquefied gas supply unit 20 and a condensed gas flow path 51 connected to the evaporated gas recovery line 41 of the evaporated gas recovery unit 40. [ And may have a flow path 52, and may have a structure having at least two flow paths.

The condenser 50 may be provided downstream of the point where the low-pressure liquefied gas supply line 24 is branched in the liquefied gas supply line 21. [ That is, the condenser 50 can be provided at a downstream side of a point where the liquefied gas is branched into a plurality of consumers 100 in the liquefied gas supply unit 20.

This is because, as described above, when the liquefied gas flows along the low-pressure liquefied gas supply line 24, no surplus of the evaporated gas is generated and no flow of the evaporated gas occurs in the condenser 50, (50) to prevent a situation such as breakage of the capacitor (50) due to thermal deviation.

That is, when there is a surplus of evaporated gas (when there is (almost) no flow in the low-pressure liquefied gas supply line 24), the condenser 50 exchanges excess evaporation gas with liquefied gas flowing to the liquefied gas pump 22 . When there is no surplus evaporation gas (if there is a flow in the low-pressure liquefied gas supply line 24), the condenser 50 does not receive the vaporized gas of the surplus portion (substantially) So that the risk of breakage can be solved.

The liquefied gas flowing through the low-pressure liquefied gas supply line 24 is not a problem because it does not pass through the condenser 50. However, the liquefied gas delivered to the high-pressure consumer 101 through the liquefied gas pump 22 is an excess The temperature difference may occur if the capacitor 50 is connected to the capacitor 50 regardless of whether the capacitor 50 is generated or not. However, the present invention can include a capacitor bypass 60 to overcome this, which will be described later.

The condenser 50 condenses the surplus evaporated gas to the liquefied gas delivered to the liquefied gas pump 22. The liquefied gas heated while passing through the condenser 50 can be introduced into the liquefied gas pump 22.

In this case, when the liquefied gas is pressurized by the liquefied gas pump 22, some of the liquefied gas is vaporized and cavitation may occur. Accordingly, the present embodiment can implement an anti-cavitation mode in which the temperature of the liquefied gas flowing into the liquefied gas pump 22 through the condenser 50 is regulated by using the controller 90, which will be described later. This will be described later.

The condenser 50 may be provided with a spreader 53 as shown in FIG. The purge part 53 can remove the liquefied gas and the evaporated gas remaining in the condenser 50. [ The condenser 50 can operate to condense the evaporation gas into the liquefied gas when the evaporation gas of the surplus is generated. Even if there is no evaporation gas of the surplus portion and the evaporation gas and the liquefied gas are not introduced into the condenser 50, (50) may contain evaporative gas and liquefied gas.

If the liquefied gas flow path 51 and the evaporation gas flow path 52 of the condenser 50 are separated from the liquefied gas supply line 21 and the evaporated gas recovery line 41 and opened to the outside for the maintenance of the condenser 50 It is necessary to remove the gases remaining in the condenser 50 in order to prevent the occurrence of an accident.

Accordingly, the purging unit 53 can supply the purging gas to the condenser 50 and can discharge the liquefied gas and the evaporation gas together with the purging gas. To this end, the purging unit 53 includes the purging gas supply unit 531, (532).

The purging gas supply unit 531 has a purging gas supply line 531 connected to one side of the condenser 50 and supplies a purging gas to one side of the condenser 50. The purging gas may be a gas such as nitrogen, air or inert gas, which is not a danger of explosion.

The purging gas supply unit 531 can supply the purging gas to the liquefied gas supply line 21 or the evaporation gas recovery line 41 from one side of the condenser 50. For example, the purging gas supply unit 531 can supply the purging gas to the liquefied gas supply line 21 on the upstream side of the condenser 50 based on the flow of the liquefied gas. The purging gas supply unit 531 supplies the purging gas to the evaporation gas recovery line 41 on the upstream side of the condenser 50 on the basis of the flow of the evaporation gas.

When the purging gas is injected into the condenser 50, the purging gas can push the liquefied gas and the evaporation gas remaining in the liquefied gas flow path 51 and the evaporation gas flow path 52 to the other side of the condenser 50. At this time, the liquefied gas and the evaporated gas that escape to the other side of the condenser 50 together with the purging gas are vented to the outside by the vent portion 532.

The vent portion 532 has a vent line 532 connected to the other side of the condenser 50 and ventilates the liquefied gas or the evaporation gas together with the purging gas at the other side of the condenser 50. The bent portion 532 can vent a mixed gas of the purging gas and the liquefied gas that escape from the liquefied gas flow path 51 and / or the mixed gas of the purging gas and the evaporated gas that escape from the evaporation gas flow path 52 .

At this time, the mixed gas may be explosive even though the non-explosive purging gas is mixed. The vent part 532 transfers the mixed gas to the gas combustion device (not shown) . Of course, the vent portion 532 can discharge the mixed gas into the atmosphere without using the gas combustion device.

However, in order to prevent the environmental pollution, the vent portion 532 analyzes the components of the mixed gas to determine the specific gravity of the explosive substance contained in the mixed gas. If it is determined that the ratio of the explosive substance is sufficiently low, As shown in FIG. That is, the vent portion 532 can discharge the mixed gas to the gas combustion device and / or discharge it to the atmosphere depending on the composition of the mixed gas.

The vent portion 532 may vent the liquefied gas or the evaporated gas together with the purging gas from the liquefied gas supply line 21 or the evaporated gas recovery line 41 from the other side of the condenser 50. For example, the vent portion 532 can vent the liquefied gas together with the purging gas from the liquefied gas supply line 21 on the downstream side of the condenser 50 on the basis of the flow of the liquefied gas, It is possible to vent the evaporation gas together with the purging gas from the evaporation gas recovery line 41 on the downstream side of the condenser 50. [

Of course, the present invention does not limit the positions of the purging gas supply part 531 and the vent part 532 to the above. The purging gas supply part 531 and the vent part 532 in the liquefied gas supply line 21 and the evaporation gas recovery line 41 may be provided with a capacitor 50 interposed therebetween. The vent portion 532 may be provided upstream of the condenser 50 based on the flow of the liquefied gas / evaporated gas.

Through the configuration of the purging portion 53, the condenser 50 can safely remove all of the explosive liquefied gas / vapor remaining inside the condenser 50 before maintenance. However, the purging portion 53 does not operate only for maintenance of the condenser 50. Fig.

For example, the purging portion 53 can be operated even when only the liquefied gas flows into the condenser 50 because no excess evaporation gas is generated. That is, if evaporated gas of excess is not recovered through the evaporated gas recovery line 41, the liquefied gas at a very low temperature may cause thermal fluctuation in the condenser 50, which may cause damage to the condenser 50 or the like.

However, in this case, in this embodiment, the liquefied gas is bypassed to the condenser 50, or the purge gas is supplied to the evaporation gas recovery line 41 using the purge portion 53, The condenser 50 can be protected by heat exchange. That is, in the present embodiment, the cold heat of the liquefied gas can be transferred to the condenser 50 without being transmitted to the condenser 50 itself.

At this time, the purge part 53 can implement the supply of the purge gas and the vent in parallel to the flow of the evaporative gas / vice versa. When the supply of the purging gas is performed, that is, the purging gas is injected from the downstream of the condenser 50 and flows along the upstream of the condenser 50, the purge gas is supplied to the evaporation gas supply line 41, The purging gas can be consumed in the low-pressure consumer 103. In this case,

However, since the purging gas may be nitrogen or air, when the purging gas is mixed with the evaporation gas and supplied to the low-pressure consumer 103, the methane price may be a problem. In this case, since the high-pressure liquefied gas can be supplemented to the evaporative gas directed to the low-pressure consumer 103 as described above, the decrease of the methane price can be prevented.

The capacitor bypassing portion (60) allows the liquefied or evaporated gas to bypass the condenser (50). The condenser bypassing section 60 may include a condenser bypass line 61 connected from the upstream side of the condenser 50 to the downstream side of the condenser 50 in the liquefied gas supply line 21. [

The condenser bypass line 61 may allow at least a portion of the liquefied gas delivered from the liquefied gas storage tank 10 to the liquefied gas pump 22 to bypass the condenser 50. The condenser bypassing line 61 may be provided with a condenser bypass valve 611 and the condenser bypass valve 611 may be controlled by the control unit 90.

When the liquefied gas flows into the condenser 50 in a large amount relative to the evaporated gas, the cold heat of the liquefied gas at the extremely low temperature may damage the condenser 50 .

Therefore, in this embodiment, when it is detected that the surplus evaporated gas is not (substantially) introduced into the condenser 50, the liquefied gas bypasses the condenser 50 through the condenser bypass line 61 without passing through the condenser 50 To the liquefied gas pump (22).

That is, the opening of the condenser bypass line 61 can be made by the control unit 90 depending on whether sufficient evaporation gas is generated or not, and the evaporation gas of surplus is generated by the evaporation gas flow rate of the liquefied gas storage tank 10 The internal pressure of the liquefied gas storage tank 10, the load of the low-pressure consumer 103, and the like.

The oil supply unit (70) supplies the oil to the customer (100). The plurality of demanders 100 may be a heterogeneous fuel consumer 100 operating with gas or oil. That is, the customer 100 may consume liquefied gas or evaporated gas, or consume oil.

The oil supply unit 70 can supply the oil to the high pressure consumer 101 and the low pressure consumer 103. The oil may be a liquid placed at a normal temperature such as HFO or DO.

The oil supply portion 70 includes an oil tank 71 and an oil supply line 72. The oil tank 71 is provided on the ship to store the oil, and may be provided at least one.

However, in order to prevent the viscosity of the oil from increasing, the oil tank 71 may maintain the temperature of the oil at a predetermined temperature or higher by using the above-described heat source or a separate heat source.

The oil supply line 72 is connected from the oil tank 71 to the customer 100 and supplies the oil to the customer 100. The oil supply line 72 may be connected to the oil tank 71 at one end and may be branched into two or more at the other end to be connected to a plurality of the customers 100.

An oil supply valve (not shown) may be provided in the oil supply line 72. An oil supply valve may be separately provided for each portion branched from the oil supply line 72 to each customer 100, 100 can be adjusted.

When the consumer 100 is driven by oil, exhaust gas containing a large amount of contaminants such as nitrogen oxides (NOx) and sulfur oxides (SOx) may be generated from the consumer 100. [ Such an exhaust can be purified through an exhaust gas recirculation system (EGR) or a denitration system (SCR), but it can be a problem in a case where a purification apparatus is not provided, and even in a vessel provided with a purification apparatus, There is a problem that the purification device must be operated.

Especially, in the case of a ship including an area to which the emission regulation is applied on the navigation route, it is necessary to purify the exhaust when operating the area, and the above problems arise. However, in the present embodiment, even if the purifier is not used, the consumer 100 can be operated using the liquefied gas or the evaporated gas, thereby reducing the pollution degree of the exhaust gas.

However, whether the consumer 100 consumes the gas or consumes the oil can be basically determined depending on the storage amount of the gas or oil. In the case of the low-pressure consumer 103 consuming the evaporated gas, the liquefied gas storage tank 10 If the flow rate of the generated evaporation gas is less than the required flow rate of the low-pressure demand site 103, it can be converted to oil.

However, as described above, when the customer 100 operates as oil instead of gas, the pollution degree of the exhaust gas may increase, and there is a possibility that the exhaust gas regulation applied to a certain area may not be satisfied when operating the ship.

Therefore, in the present embodiment, the customer 100 can be operated by gas instead of oil in consideration of whether the exhaust gas is regulated. That is, when the evaporation gas flow rate of the liquefied gas storage tank 10 is less than the required flow rate of the demand site 100, the demand site 100 is operated with oil. However, in the region where the emission regulation is applied, It is possible to make the customer 100 to operate by consuming the liquefied gas instead of converting into the oil when the demanded quantity of the liquefied petroleum gas is less than the required flow rate of the liquefied petroleum gas 100.

Such control may be implemented by the control unit 90, and the control unit 90 will be described in detail later.

The control unit 90 controls all the configurations that can be controlled in the present invention. The control unit 90 can implement the flow control of various lines, the opening control of the valves provided in the lines, and the actuation load control of the structures provided on the lines.

In addition, the present invention can freely set various sensors for sensing the flow rate, temperature, pressure, etc. of the liquefied gas and / or the evaporated gas on the liquefied gas or the flow of the evaporated gas for the control of the controller 90, It is not limited to the absence of a sensor or the like.

First, the control unit 90 can control the capacitor bypass unit 60. [ The controller 90 controls the condenser bypass 60 according to the evaporated gas flow rate of the liquefied gas storage tank 10 so that the liquefied gas bypasses the condenser 50. [

If the evaporated gas flow rate of the liquefied gas storage tank 10 is less than the reference value and / or the internal pressure of the liquefied gas storage tank 10 is less than the reference value, the controller 90 causes the condenser 50 to generate a sufficient amount of evaporative gas It is possible to control the capacitor bypassing portion 60 so that at least a part of the liquefied gas bypasses the capacitor 50 by the capacitor bypassing portion 60. [

If the flow rate of the evaporation gas flowing into the condenser 50 is not sufficient, it means that no excess evaporation gas is generated. At this time, if the cryogenic liquefied gas flows into the condenser 50, The risk of breakage of the capacitor 50 is increased due to the deviation.

Therefore, when the evaporation gas flow rate of the surplus portion flowing along the evaporation gas recovery line 41 is detected to be less than the reference value, the control unit 90 controls the condenser bypass 60 so that at least a part of the liquefied gas bypasses the condenser 50 .

At least a part of the liquefied gas discharged from the liquefied gas storage tank 10 and flowing toward the condenser 50 flows along the condenser bypass line 61 as the control unit 90 controls the condenser bypass unit 60 to supply the liquefied gas And may be introduced into the pump 22. Therefore, when the inflow of the evaporation gas into the condenser 50 is insufficient, the control section 90 can suppress the inflow of the liquefied gas into the condenser 50.

Therefore, the controller 90 can prevent the problem that the cold 50 is directly transferred from the cryogenic liquefied gas to the condenser 50 so that the condenser 50 is broken or the operation is stopped.

The control unit 90 can control the flow of the liquefied gas in the low-pressure liquefied gas supply line 24 in accordance with the flow rate of the evaporated gas in the evaporated gas recovery unit 40. The point where the low-pressure liquefied gas supply line 24 branches in the liquefied gas supply line 21 may be upstream of the position where the condenser 50 is provided in the liquefied gas supply line 21, as described above.

If the surplus evaporated gas does not flow into the condenser 50, this means that the flow rate of the evaporated gas delivered from the evaporated gas supply line 31 to the low-pressure demand destination 103 is less than the required flow rate of the low- .

Therefore, when the evaporated gas flow rate in the evaporated gas recovery section 40 is less than the reference value, the control section 90 controls the flow rate of the evaporated gas in the low-pressure liquefied gas supply line 24 along the low-pressure liquefied gas supply line 24, So that the liquefied gas can flow.

The remaining liquefied gas that does not flow into the low pressure liquefied gas supply line 24 is transferred to the liquefied gas pump 22 via the condenser 50 or to the liquefied gas pump 22 bypassing the condenser 50 . Even if the liquefied gas passes through the condenser 50, the condenser 50 may not be supplied with the evaporated gas. In this case, the purging gas may be supplied to receive the liquefied gas as described above.

The control unit 90 can control the liquefied gas supply unit 20 in accordance with the evaporated gas flow rate of the liquefied gas storage tank 10. That is, the control unit 90 can control the flow of the liquefied gas supply line 21 (particularly, the low-pressure liquefied gas supply line 24) according to the evaporation gas flow rate. At this time, the control unit 90 may consider whether or not to regulate the exhaust gas discharged from the customer 100.

When the application of the exhaust gas regulation is confirmed and the evaporation gas flow rate of the liquefied gas storage tank 10 is less than the reference value (the internal pressure of the liquefied gas storage tank 10 is less than the reference value), the control unit 90 controls the liquefied gas supply unit 20, Thereby allowing the liquefied gas to be delivered to the customer 100.

Here, the customer 100 may be a low-pressure consumer 103 operated by the evaporative gas. If the flow rate of the evaporative gas is insufficient, the consumer 100 may operate using oil. However, when the customer 100 is operated with oil, the pollution degree of the exhaust gas increases compared with the case where the exhaust gas is operated as the evaporation gas, so that the exhaust emission regulation may not be satisfied.

Therefore, in this embodiment, the liquefied gas can be delivered to the customer 100 by the liquefied gas supply unit 20 in order to prevent the customer 100 from switching to oil when the evaporation gas flow rate is insufficient.

To this end, the control unit 90 can control the oil supply unit 70 while controlling the liquefied gas supply unit 20 according to whether the exhaust gas is regulated or not. That is, when the application of the exhaust emission restriction is confirmed, the control unit 90 restricts the supply of oil by the oil supply unit 70 and restricts the flow rate of the evaporated gas, which is supplied to the customer 100, Can be eliminated by the supply of the liquefied gas by the liquefied gas supply unit 20. [

As the control unit 90 suppresses the oil operation of the consumer 100 in consideration of the exhaust regulation, the ship equipped with the present system can be operated safely and efficiently Can implement navigation.

The control unit (90) can control the operation of the evaporation gas supply unit (30). Specifically, the control unit 90 sets the tank pressure control mode and the anti-cavitation mode, and controls the evaporation gas supply unit 30 accordingly.

The tank pressure control mode may be a mode for maintaining the internal pressure of the liquefied gas storage tank 10 within a certain range. In the liquefied gas storage tank 10, an evaporation gas is continuously generated, and the generation of the evaporation gas raises the internal pressure of the liquefied gas storage tank 10.

At this time, the internal pressure of the liquefied gas storage tank 10 can be maintained at an appropriate level only by discharging the vaporized gas at a proper flow rate from the liquefied gas storage tank 10. Accordingly, the controller 90 may set a tank pressure control mode for controlling the internal pressure of the liquefied gas storage tank 10. [

On the other hand, the anti-cavitation mode may be a mode in which cavitation does not occur in the liquefied gas pump 22 when the liquefied gas is introduced into the liquefied gas pump 22. The liquefied gas is delivered to the liquefied gas pump 22 from the liquefied gas storage tank 10 along the liquefied gas supply line 21. The liquefied gas supply line 21 upstream of the liquefied gas pump 22 is connected to the condenser 50 So that the liquefied gas can be heated by the evaporation gas and then introduced into the liquefied gas pump 22.

That is, when the temperature of the liquefied gas flowing into the liquefied gas pump 22 rises in the condenser 50, the liquefied gas pump 22 is likely to vaporize the liquefied gas, which may lead to cavitation.

Therefore, the control unit 90 can set the anti-cavitation mode in which the temperature of the liquefied gas flowing into the liquefied gas pump 22 is lower than the reference value. Here, the reference value refers to the pressure in the liquefied gas pump 22, And may be a value set to suppress the occurrence of the cavitation at the time.

The control unit 90 can operate the evaporation gas supply unit 30 in the tank pressure regulation mode or the anti-cavitation mode according to the flow rate or temperature of the evaporation gas and the liquefied gas flowing into the condenser 50. [

In the tank pressure control mode, the controller 90 adjusts the flow rate of the evaporation gas supplied from the liquefied gas storage tank 10 so that the evaporation gas supply unit 30 maintains the internal pressure of the liquefied gas storage tank 10 within a certain range .

For example, the control unit 90 can operate the evaporative gas compressor 32 in the tank pressure regulation mode. That is, the control unit 90 adjusts the flow rate of the evaporative gas sucked by the evaporative gas compressor 32 by adjusting the inlet guide vane or the like of the evaporative gas compressor 32 so that the internal pressure of the liquefied gas storage tank 10 is maintained within a certain range . ≪ / RTI >

Of course, the control unit 90 also controls the flow rate of the evaporated gas returned to the upstream of the evaporative gas compressor 32 along the evaporated gas return line 321 at the downstream of the evaporated gas compressor 32, An adjustment mode can be implemented. In other words, in the tank pressure control mode, the control unit 90 can implement various controls such that the internal pressure of the liquefied gas storage tank 10 is maintained within a certain range.

On the other hand, in order to control the temperature of the liquefied gas flowing into the liquefied gas pump 22 in the anti-cavitation mode, the control unit 90 can control the flow rate of the evaporated gas flowing into the condenser 50 from the evaporated gas supply unit 30 have.

The control unit 90 can operate the evaporative gas compressor 32 in the anti-cavitation mode, and the inlet guide vane and the like can be controlled at this time. And / or the control unit 90 can perform various controls such as controlling the flow of the evaporation gas return line 321 in the anti-cavitation mode.

In the anti-cavitation mode, the control unit 90 can control the flow rate of the evaporation gas flowing into the condenser 50 through the evaporation gas recovery unit 40, which includes the valve 411 provided in the evaporation gas recovery line 41, By controlling the opening degree of the opening.

The control unit 90 may control the temperature of the evaporated gas flowing into the condenser 50 together with or separately from the flow rate of the evaporated gas flowing into the condenser 50. In this case, (90).

In this way, the control unit 90 can adjust the flow rate or the temperature of the evaporation gas flowing into the condenser 50 in the anti-cavitation mode so that the liquefied gas heat-exchanged in the condenser 50 can be placed in a range that does not generate cavitation have. This is as shown in FIG.

Referring to FIG. 3, when the control unit 90 operates the evaporation gas supply unit 30 in the anti-cavitation mode, the liquefied gas may be in a range within the dotted line to the left of the saturation line in FIG. That is, since the liquefied gas has a pressure and a temperature at a position away from the saturation line to the left, cavitation in the liquefied gas pump 22 can be suppressed.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, the evaporation gas can be condensed by using the liquefied gas and can be recycled. By providing the structures for efficiently implementing the flow of the liquefied gas and the evaporative gas, the efficiency of the system operation can be increased, .

4 is a conceptual diagram of a gas processing system according to a second embodiment of the present invention.

4, the position of the point where the low-pressure liquefied gas supply line 24 branches at the liquefied gas supply line 21 is different from that of the first embodiment .

Hereinafter, the present embodiment will be mainly described with respect to differences from the other embodiments, and the description omitted in the description of the first embodiment.

In this embodiment, the condenser 50 may be provided upstream of the point where the liquefied gas is branched into the plurality of consumers 100 in the liquefied gas supply unit 20. [ In other words, the condenser 50 may be provided upstream of the point where the low-pressure liquefied gas supply line 24 is branched in the liquefied gas supply line 21.

In this case, the low-pressure liquefied gas supply line 24 can receive the liquefied gas through the condenser 50, unlike the first embodiment. Therefore, the forced vaporizer 25 provided in the low-pressure liquefied gas supply line 24 can forcibly vaporize the liquefied gas heat-exchanged with the evaporated gas in the condenser 50.

Of course, in this embodiment as well, as in the previous embodiment, the problem of breakage of the capacitor 50 can be solved by the capacitor bypassing portion 60 when excess evaporation gas is not supplied to the capacitor 50. [

However, in this embodiment, since the liquefied gas delivered to the forced vaporizer 25 may be heated by the evaporated gas, the load of the heat source used in the forced vaporizer 25 may be reduced.

When the liquefied gas is delivered to the forced vaporizer 25 placed in the low-pressure liquefied gas supply line 24, this means that the flow rate of the evaporated gas delivered to the low-pressure consumer 103 is not sufficient. In this case, however, there may be no surplus evaporated gas, and thus evaporated gas may not flow into the condenser 50.

However, in the present embodiment, even when the flow rate of the evaporative gas delivered to the low-pressure consumer 103 along the evaporative gas supply line 31 exceeds the required flow rate of the low-pressure consumer 103, Can be advantageous.

In this case, in a situation where a surplus that can not be consumed by the low-pressure consumer 103 is generated as a large amount of evaporative gas is generated in the liquefied gas storage tank 10, the excess amount of evaporated gas is supplied to the condenser 50 It may be the case that the internal pressure of the liquefied gas storage tank 10 must be sufficiently lowered by condensing and returning to the liquefied gas storage tank 10.

When the methane price for raising the operation efficiency of the low-pressure consumer 103 is not satisfied, the liquefied gas can be replenished even if the flow rate of the evaporation gas is large. At this time, the condenser 50 is supplied with the low- 24 and the surplus evaporation gas may flow into the evaporator.

As described above, in the present embodiment, when the liquefied gas is to be replenished to the low-pressure consumer 103 while an excess evaporation gas is generated, the liquefied gas heated by the evaporated gas in the condenser 50 is supplied to the forced vaporizer 25 The load of the forced vaporizer 25 can be reduced.

Of course, the present invention allows the low-pressure liquefied gas supply line 24 to be branched both upstream and downstream of the condenser 50, provided that the liquefied gas flows from the upstream of the condenser 50 to the forced vaporizer 25 Or may be introduced into the forced vaporizer 25 at the downstream of the condenser 50. The flow of the liquefied gas can be controlled by the control unit 90.

In addition to the embodiments described above, the present invention encompasses all embodiments that occur by combination of at least any one embodiment and known technology, or a combination of at least two embodiments, and the like.
