Description

本開示は、液化二酸化炭素の移載方法、浮体に関する。 The present disclosure relates to a transfer method of liquefied carbon dioxide and a floating body.

例えば特許文献1には、液化ガス(LNG:Liquefied Natural Gas)を貯蔵するタンクを備えた船舶(輸入船)から、陸上の設備(輸入ターミナル)に、液化ガスを移送するための移送装置(天然ガス移送装置)を備えた構成が開示されている。このような構成では、陸上の設備に係留された船舶は、設備と流体連通し、タンク内の液化ガスを陸上の貯蔵タンクに移送している。 For example, Patent Document 1 describes a transfer device (natural gas) for transferring liquefied gas from a ship (imported ship) equipped with a tank for storing liquefied gas (LNG: Liquid Natural Gas) to a facility on land (import terminal). A configuration with a gas transfer device) is disclosed. In such a configuration, the vessel moored at the onshore equipment communicates with the equipment and transfers the liquefied gas in the tank to the onshore storage tank.

特表2010-503132号公報Special Table 2010-503132 Publication No.

ところで、陸上の設備等の外部設備からタンクに液化ガスを積み込む際や、タンク内の液化ガスを外部設備に揚荷する際には、タンクの備える積込配管や揚荷配管等の配管は、外部設備と接続管を介して接続される。しかし、配管に接続管を接続するときに、配管内部に空気(大気)が侵入する可能性がある。そして、タンク内に液化二酸化炭素を収容する場合、配管内への空気侵入が生じると、空気中に含まれる水分と二酸化炭素とが反応し、炭酸やハイドレートが生成されてしまう。このように炭酸やハイドレートが生成されると、配管やタンクの内部に腐食が生じる可能性がある。 By the way, when loading liquefied gas from external equipment such as onshore equipment into the tank or when unloading liquefied gas in the tank to external equipment, the piping such as loading pipes and unloading pipes provided in the tank should be used. It is connected to external equipment via a connection pipe. However, when connecting the connecting pipe to the pipe, air (atmosphere) may enter the inside of the pipe. When liquefied carbon dioxide is contained in the tank, when air invades the pipe, the water contained in the air reacts with carbon dioxide to generate carbonic acid or hydrate. When carbonic acid or hydrate is generated in this way, corrosion may occur inside the piping or tank.

そのため、上記タンクの配管に接続管を接続した後、接続管内に二酸化炭素ガスを充填することが行われている。これにより、空気中に含まれる水分が液化二酸化炭素に直接接触することを抑えている。しかしながら、この場合も、二酸化炭素ガスを充填する際に、接続管内の空気に含まれる水分と二酸化炭素とが反応し、タンクや配管の内部に腐食が生じてしまう可能性がある。 Therefore, after connecting the connecting pipe to the pipe of the tank, the connecting pipe is filled with carbon dioxide gas. This prevents the moisture contained in the air from coming into direct contact with the liquefied carbon dioxide. However, even in this case, when the carbon dioxide gas is filled, the moisture contained in the air in the connecting pipe reacts with the carbon dioxide, and there is a possibility that the inside of the tank or the pipe is corroded.

本開示は、上記課題を解決するためになされたものであって、液化二酸化炭素を移載する際に二酸化炭素と水分とが反応することを抑え、タンクや配管の内部に腐食が生じることが抑制できる液化二酸化炭素の移載方法、浮体を提供することを目的とする。 This disclosure is made in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, and suppresses the reaction between carbon dioxide and water when transferring liquefied carbon dioxide, and may cause corrosion inside tanks and pipes. It is an object of the present invention to provide a floating body and a transfer method of liquefied carbon dioxide that can be suppressed.

上記課題を解決するために、本開示に係る液化二酸化炭素の移載方法は、接続管を接続する工程と、置換ガスに置換する工程と、二酸化炭素ガスに置換する工程と、液化二酸化炭素を移載する工程と、を含む。前記接続管を接続する工程では、浮体に備えられたタンクの内部に連通する配管に前記接続管を接続する。前記接続管は、前記配管を前記浮体の外部に配置された外部設備と接続するためのものである。前記置換ガスに置換する工程では、前記接続管及び前記配管の内部に置換ガスを送り込み、前記接続管及び前記配管の内部を前記置換ガスに置換する。前記置換ガスは、水分量が所定の上限値以下に調整されている。前記二酸化炭素ガスに置換する工程では、前記接続管及び前記配管の内部を、前記置換ガスから二酸化炭素ガスに置換する。前記液化二酸化炭素を移載する工程では、前記接続管及び前記配管を通して、前記外部設備と前記タンクとの間で液化二酸化炭素を移載する。 In order to solve the above problems, the transfer method of liquefied carbon dioxide according to the present disclosure includes a step of connecting a connecting pipe, a step of replacing with a replacement gas, a step of replacing with carbon dioxide gas, and a step of replacing liquefied carbon dioxide. Including the process of transferring. In the step of connecting the connecting pipe, the connecting pipe is connected to a pipe communicating with the inside of the tank provided in the floating body. The connecting pipe is for connecting the pipe to an external facility arranged outside the floating body. In the step of replacing with the replacement gas, the replacement gas is sent into the connecting pipe and the inside of the pipe, and the inside of the connecting pipe and the pipe is replaced with the replacement gas. The water content of the replacement gas is adjusted to be equal to or less than a predetermined upper limit value. In the step of replacing with carbon dioxide gas, the connection pipe and the inside of the pipe are replaced with carbon dioxide gas from the replacement gas. In the step of transferring the liquefied carbon dioxide, the liquefied carbon dioxide is transferred between the external equipment and the tank through the connecting pipe and the pipe.

図2に示すように、置換ガス供給部20は、外部設備100と接続するための接続管50が配管12に接続された状態で、配管12及び接続管50の内部に、置換ガスGaを送り込む。置換ガスGaとしては、二酸化炭素と化学反応を生じない気体が用いられる。置換ガスGaは、水分量が所定の上限値以下に調整されている。このような置換ガスGaとしては、水分量が所定の上限値以下に調整された空気(いわゆるドライエア)や、窒素、アルゴン等の不活性ガスを用いることができる。この実施形態では、置換ガスGaとしてドライエアを用いている。置換ガス供給部20は、エアドライヤー21を備えている。エアドライヤー21は、外部から取り込んだ大気から水分を除去することで、水分量を、所定の上限値、例えば露点温度-40℃以下に調整したドライエアを生成する。エアドライヤー21は、置換ガス供給管22を介して、配管12に接続されている。置換ガス供給管22には、開閉弁23が設けられている。エアドライヤー21で生成されたドライエアは、開閉弁23を開状態とすることで、置換ガス供給管22を通して、配管12、接続管50、及び設備側配管102の内部に送り込まれる。なお、ドライエアにおける水分量の上限値は、効率よく配管内の水分除去が可能な値であれば良く、予め実験等により求めることができる。 As shown in FIG. 2, the replacement gas supply unit 20 sends the replacement gas Ga into the pipe 12 and the connection pipe 50 in a state where the connection pipe 50 for connecting to the external equipment 100 is connected to the pipe 12. .. As the replacement gas Ga, a gas that does not chemically react with carbon dioxide is used. The water content of the replacement gas Ga is adjusted to be equal to or less than a predetermined upper limit value. As such a replacement gas Ga, air (so-called dry air) whose water content is adjusted to a predetermined upper limit or less, or an inert gas such as nitrogen or argon can be used. In this embodiment, dry air is used as the replacement gas Ga. The replacement gas supply unit 20 includes an air dryer 21. The air dryer 21 removes moisture from the atmosphere taken in from the outside to generate dry air whose moisture content is adjusted to a predetermined upper limit value, for example, a dew point temperature of −40 ° C. or lower.

(液化二酸化炭素の移送方法の手順)
図5に示すように、この実施形態に係る液化二酸化炭素Lの移載方法S10は、接続管50を接続する工程S11と、置換ガスGaに置換する工程S12と、二酸化炭素ガスGcに置換する工程S13と、液化二酸化炭素Lを移載する工程S14と、を含んでいる。
(Procedure of transfer method of liquefied carbon dioxide)
As shown in FIG. 5, the transfer method S10 of the liquefied carbon dioxide L according to this embodiment is replaced with the step S11 for connecting the connecting pipe 50, the step S12 for replacing with the replacement gas Ga, and the carbon dioxide gas Gc. A step S13 and a step S14 for transferring the liquefied carbon dioxide L are included.

接続管50を接続する工程S11では、図6に示すように、配管12に、外部設備100と接続するための接続管50の一端を接続する。さらに、外部設備100の設備側配管102に接続管50の他端を接続する。このとき、開閉弁15,23,105,開放弁106を閉状態にしておく。この状態で、開閉弁15と開閉弁105との間に位置する、配管12、接続管50、及び設備側配管102の内部には、大気が入っている。 In the step S11 for connecting the connection pipe 50, as shown in FIG. 6, one end of the connection pipe 50 for connecting to the external equipment 100 is connected to the pipe 12. Further, the other end of the connecting pipe 50 is connected to the equipment side pipe 102 of the external equipment 100. At this time, the on-off valves 15, 23, 105 and the open valve 106 are kept closed. In this state, the atmosphere is contained in the pipe 12, the connection pipe 50, and the equipment side pipe 102 located between the on-off valve 15 and the on-off valve 105.

置換ガスGaに置換する工程S12では、図7に示すように、置換ガス供給部20により、接続管50の内部に置換ガスGaを送り込む。これには、エアドライヤー21を作動させるとともに、開閉弁15,105を閉状態、開閉弁23及び開放弁106を開状態とする。エアドライヤー21で外部から取り込まれた空気(大気)中の水分を除去することで、水分量が所定の上限値以下に調整されたドライエアが生成され、このドライエアが置換ガスGaとなる。この置換ガスGaは、置換ガス供給管22を通して配管12の連結部12jに供給される。供給された置換ガスGaは、配管12から接続管50、設備側配管102へと流れて、配管12、接続管50、及び設備側配管102の内部の空気を、開放弁106から順次外部に押し出す。開放弁106から排出される空気の露点を計測し、露点が予め設定した許容値範囲内に入るまで、置換ガスGaの送り込みを継続する。計測される露点が許容値範囲内に入ったら、置換ガス供給部20による置換ガスGaの送り込みを停止し、開放弁106、開閉弁23を閉状態とする。これにより、開閉弁15,105の間における配管12、接続管50、及び設備側配管102の内部が置換ガスGaに置換される。 In the step S12 of substituting with the replacement gas Ga, as shown in FIG. 7, the replacement gas Ga is sent into the inside of the connecting pipe 50 by the replacement gas supply unit 20. To do this, the air dryer 21 is operated, and the on-off valves 15 and 105 are closed, and the on-off valve 23 and the open valve 106 are opened. By removing the moisture in the air (atmosphere) taken in from the outside by the air dryer 21, dry air whose moisture content is adjusted to be equal to or less than a predetermined upper limit is generated, and this dry air becomes the replacement gas Ga. This replacement gas Ga is supplied to the connecting portion 12j of the pipe 12 through the replacement gas supply pipe 22. The supplied replacement gas Ga flows from the pipe 12 to the connection pipe 50 and the equipment side pipe 102, and sequentially pushes the air inside the pipe 12, the connection pipe 50, and the equipment side pipe 102 to the outside from the release valve 106. .. The dew point of the air discharged from the release valve 106 is measured, and the replacement gas Ga is continuously fed until the dew point falls within the preset allowable value range. When the measured dew point is within the permissible value range, the feeding of the replacement gas Ga by the replacement gas supply unit 20 is stopped, and the open valve 106 and the on-off valve 23 are closed. As a result, the inside of the pipe 12, the connecting pipe 50, and the equipment side pipe 102 between the on-off valves 15 and 105 is replaced with the replacement gas Ga.

二酸化炭素ガスGcに置換する工程S13では、接続管50の内部を、置換ガスGaから二酸化炭素ガスGcに置換する。これには、図8に示すように、開閉弁15、105を開状態、開放弁106及び開閉弁23を閉状態とする。この状態で、二酸化炭素供給部30及び配管12を通し、接続管50、及び設備側配管102の内部にタンク11のボイルオフガスを二酸化炭素ガスGcとして送り込む。これにより、配管12、接続管50、及び設備側配管102の内部の置換ガスGa(ドライエア)が、外部設備100側に順次押し出されていく。外部設備100側では、接続管50側から押し出されてくる置換ガスGaと二酸化炭素ガスGcの混合気の二酸化炭素濃度を計測する。計測された二酸化炭素濃度が予め設定した濃度範囲内に入ったら、二酸化炭素供給部30による二酸化炭素ガスGcの供給を停止する。 In the step S13 of replacing with carbon dioxide gas Gc, the inside of the connecting pipe 50 is replaced with carbon dioxide gas Gc from the replacement gas Ga. For this purpose, as shown in FIG. 8, the on-off valves 15 and 105 are in the open state, and the open valve 106 and the on-off valve 23 are in the closed state. In this state, the boil-off gas of the tank 11 is sent as carbon dioxide gas Gc into the connection pipe 50 and the equipment side pipe 102 through the carbon dioxide supply unit 30 and the pipe 12. As a result, the replacement gas Ga (dry air) inside the pipe 12, the connecting pipe 50, and the equipment side pipe 102 is sequentially pushed out to the external equipment 100 side. On the external equipment 100 side, the carbon dioxide concentration of the mixture of the replacement gas Ga and the carbon dioxide gas Gc extruded from the connecting pipe 50 side is measured. When the measured carbon dioxide concentration falls within the preset concentration range, the supply of carbon dioxide gas Gc by the carbon dioxide supply unit 30 is stopped.

液化二酸化炭素Lを移載する工程S14では、図9に示すように、接続管50及び配管12を通して、外部設備100とタンク11との間で液化二酸化炭素Lを移載する。例えば、外部設備100からタンク11内への液化二酸化炭素Lの積込を行う場合、外部設備100の設備側タンク101から、設備側配管102、接続管50、配管12(積込配管13)を通して、タンク11内に液化二酸化炭素Lを送り込む。
また、タンク11内から外部設備100への液化二酸化炭素Lの揚荷を行う場合、配管12(揚荷配管14)から、接続管50、設備側配管102を通して、外部設備100の設備側タンク101に液化二酸化炭素Lを送り込む。
