Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a process for liquefying a gas by means of a refrigeration cycle comprising a so-called “hot” expansion turbine and a so-called “cold” expansion turbine supplied respectively at a first temperature and at a second temperature lower than the first temperature.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a process of this type having a particularly high yield.
  • the subject of the invention is a method of the aforementioned type, characterized in that it comprises at least two stages of compression of the cycle gas, and in that the two turbines are supplied at the same pressure of intake, the cycle gas is expanded in the hot turbine to a first exhaust pressure, and the cycle gas is expanded in the cold turbine to a second exhaust pressure lower than the first pressure exhaust.
  • the invention also relates to an installation for liquefying a gas intended for the implementation of the process defined above.
  • This installation of the type comprising a heat exchange line, a so-called “hot” expansion turbine, a so-called “cold” expansion turbine and cycle compression means, is characterized in that the cycle compression means comprise at least two cycle compression stages in series, the admissions of the two turbines are connected to the discharge of the same cycle compression stage, the exhaust of the hot turbine is connected to the suction of a compression stage of cycle, and the cold turbine exhaust is connected to the suction of a lower cycle compression stage.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 show only the parts of the air distillation installation concerned by the present invention, and in particular the liquefaction cycle, but it is understood that the installation also includes all the pipes and all the usual equipment necessary for the production of air gas by distillation.
  • the liquefied gas is air to be treated, while in the case of Figure 2, the liquefied gas is nitrogen.
  • the installation comprises a main compressor 6 for atmospheric air, an apparatus 7 for purifying air in water and in anhydride carbon dioxide by adsorption, a cycle compressor 8 with two stages 9 and 10 in series, a hot turbine 11 braked by an alternator 12, and a cold turbine 13 braked by an alternator 14.
  • the atmospheric air to be treated is compressed in 6 to the medium pressure P1, which is the operating pressure of column 3 and which is typically between 5 and 6 bars absolute, then is purified in 7 and compressed again at 9 at an intermediate pressure P2 then at 10 until a high cycle pressure P3, typically of the order of 30 to 100 bars absolute.
  • a first fraction of the air at this high cycle pressure P3 is cooled to an intermediate temperature T1 in the hot part of the heat exchange line 2, then out of the latter and introduced into the hot turbine 11. It emerges from the latter at the inter-stage pressure P2 of the compressor 8, is warmed up to ambient temperature in the hot part of the heat exchange line, and is returned to the intake of the second stage 10 of the same compressor 8.
  • the rest of the air at the high cycle pressure P3 is cooled in 2 to a second intermediate temperature T2 lower than T1. At this temperature, part of the air is removed from the heat exchange line and introduced into the cold turbine 13, from which it emerges at medium pressure P1 and at the temperature of the cold end of the exchange line. thermal. This turbined air is partly heated at 15 from the cold end to the hot end of the heat exchange line and returned to the suction of the first stage 9 of the compressor 8, and partly sent to the tank of column 3. The rest of the high pressure air cooled to temperature T2 continues to cool in 16 until the cold end of the heat exchange line 2, which causes it to liquefy, then it is expanded at medium pressure P1 in an expansion valve 17 and is sent to the tank of column 3.
  • a refrigeration unit 18 can be used to precool at least one of the two high pressure air streams coming from the compressor 8.
  • the electrical energy produced by the two turbines in the alternators 12 and 14 can be used to drive the cycle compressor 8.
  • the refrigeration cycle is used to liquefy nitrogen drawn off at the head of the medium pressure column 3.
  • the cycle compressor 8 is a three-stage nitrogen compressor, the first stages of which 9 and 10 correspond to the two stages 9 and 10 of FIG. 1 and are followed by an additional stage 19 in series delivering the nitrogen to be liquefied under a high liquefaction pressure P4 greater than the highest pressure P3 of the cycle.
  • the hot turbine 11 and the cold turbine 13 are both supplied with gas from the second stage 10, and the gas from the turbine 11 is returned to the suction of this second stage 10.
  • all of the gas coming from the cold turbine 13 is combined with nitrogen withdrawn from the head of the column 3 via a pipe 20, heated in 2 to ambient temperature and returned to the suction of the first stage 9.
  • the nitrogen from stage 10 which is not sent to the turbines is compressed again in 19, then cooled from the hot end to the cold end of the heat exchange line, which causes its liquefaction. Then, this high pressure liquid nitrogen is expanded to medium pressure in an expansion valve 21 and introduced under reflux at the head of the column 3.
  • the use of a multi-stage cycle compressor 8 brings a simplification of the installation and a substantial advantage from the point of view of investment.
