Description

선박용 증발가스 처리 시스템 및 방법{System and Method of Treating Boil-Off Gas for Vessels}Ship boil-off gas treatment system and method {System and Method of Treating Boil-Off Gas for Vessels}

본 발명은, 증발가스를 엔진의 연료로 공급하거나 재액화시켜 처리하는 시스템 및 방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a system and method for processing boil-off gas by supplying it as fuel for an engine or re-liquefying it.

근래, 액화천연가스(Liquefied Natural Gas, LNG) 등의 액화가스의 소비량이 전 세계적으로 급증하고 있는 추세이다. 가스를 저온에서 액화시킨 액화가스는 가스에 비해 부피가 매우 작아지므로 저장 및 이송 효율을 높일 수 있는 장점이 있다. 또한, 액화천연가스를 비롯한 액화가스는 액화공정 중에 대기오염 물질을 제거하거나 줄일 수 있어, 연소시 대기오염 물질 배출이 적은 친환경 연료로도 볼 수 있다. Recently, consumption of liquefied gas such as liquefied natural gas (LNG) is rapidly increasing worldwide. Since liquefied gas obtained by liquefying gas at a low temperature has a very small volume compared to gas, it has the advantage of increasing storage and transfer efficiency. In addition, liquefied gas, including liquefied natural gas, can remove or reduce air pollutants during the liquefaction process, and can be seen as an eco-friendly fuel with less air pollutant emissions during combustion.

액화천연가스는 메탄(methane)을 주성분으로 하는 천연가스를 약 -163℃로 냉각해서 액화시킴으로써 얻을 수 있는 무색투명한 액체로서, 천연가스와 비교해 약 1/600 정도의 부피를 가진다. 따라서, 천연가스를 액화시켜 이송할 경우 매우 효율적으로 이송할 수 있게 된다.Liquefied natural gas is a colorless and transparent liquid obtained by liquefying natural gas whose main component is methane by cooling it to about -163 ° C, and has a volume of about 1/600 compared to natural gas. Therefore, when the natural gas is liquefied and transported, it can be transported very efficiently.

그러나 천연가스의 액화 온도는 상압 -163 ℃의 극저온이므로, 액화천연가스는 온도변화에 민감하여 쉽게 증발된다. 이로 인해 액화천연가스를 저장하는 저장탱크에는 단열처리를 하지만, 외부의 열이 저장탱크에 지속적으로 전달되므로 액화천연가스 수송과정에서 저장탱크 내에서는 지속적으로 액화천연가스가 자연 기화되면서 증발가스(Boil-Off Gas, BOG)가 발생한다.However, since the liquefaction temperature of natural gas is a cryogenic temperature of -163 ° C., liquefied natural gas is sensitive to temperature changes and evaporates easily. As a result, although the storage tank for storing the liquefied natural gas is insulated, external heat is continuously transferred to the storage tank, so that the liquefied natural gas is continuously spontaneously vaporized in the storage tank during the transportation process of the liquefied natural gas, and boil-off gas (BOG) is generated.

증발가스는 일종의 손실로서 수송효율에 있어서 중요한 문제이다. 또한, 저장탱크 내에 증발가스가 축적되면 탱크 내압이 과도하게 상승할 수 있어, 심하면 탱크가 파손될 위험도 있다. 따라서, 저장탱크 내에서 발생하는 증발가스를 처리하기 위한 다양한 방법이 연구되는데, 최근에는 증발가스의 처리를 위해, 증발가스를 재액화하여 저장탱크로 복귀시키는 방법, 증발가스를 선박의 엔진 등 연료소비처의 에너지원으로 사용하는 방법 등이 사용되고 있다.Evaporation gas is a kind of loss and is an important problem in transportation efficiency. In addition, when boil-off gas is accumulated in the storage tank, the internal pressure of the tank may excessively rise, and in severe cases, there is a risk of damage to the tank. Therefore, various methods for treating the boil-off gas generated in the storage tank are being studied. Recently, for the treatment of boil-off gas, a method of re-liquefying the boil-off gas and returning it to the storage tank, and a method of using the boil-off gas as an energy source for fuel consumption such as a ship's engine have been used.

증발가스를 재액화하기 위한 방법으로는 별도의 냉매를 이용한 냉동 사이클을 구비하여 증발가스를 냉매와 열교환하여 재액화하는 방법, 및 별도의 냉매가 없이 증발가스 자체를 냉매로 하여 재액화하는 방법 등이 있다. 특히, 후자의 방법을 채용한 시스템을 부분 재액화 시스템(Partial Re-liquefaction System, PRS)이라고 한다.Methods for re-liquefying the boil-off gas include a method of re-liquefying the boil-off gas by heat exchange with the refrigerant by providing a refrigeration cycle using a separate refrigerant, and a method of re-liquefying the boil-off gas itself as a refrigerant without a separate refrigerant. In particular, a system employing the latter method is referred to as a partial re-liquefaction system (PRS).

한편, 일반적으로 선박에 사용되는 엔진 중 천연가스를 연료로 사용할 수 있는 엔진으로 DF 엔진, X-DF 엔진, ME-GI 엔진 등의 가스연료엔진이 있다.Meanwhile, among engines generally used in ships, engines that can use natural gas as fuel include gas fuel engines such as DF engines, X-DF engines, and ME-GI engines.

DF 엔진은, 4행정으로 구성되며, 비교적 저압인 6.5bar 정도의 압력을 가지는 천연가스를 연소공기 입구에 주입하여, 피스톤이 올라가면서 압축을 시키는 오토 사이클(Otto Cycle)을 채택하고 있다.The DF engine is composed of 4 strokes and adopts an Otto cycle in which natural gas having a relatively low pressure of about 6.5 bar is injected into the combustion air inlet and compressed while the piston rises.

X-DF 엔진은, 2행정으로 구성되고, 16 bar 정도의 천연가스를 연료로 사용하며, 오토 사이클을 채택하고 있다.The X-DF engine is composed of two strokes, uses natural gas at about 16 bar as fuel, and adopts an Otto cycle.

ME-GI 엔진은, 2행정으로 구성되며, 300bar 부근의 고압 천연가스를 피스톤의 상사점 부근에서 연소실에 직접 분사하는 디젤 사이클(Diesel Cycle)을 채택하고 있다.The ME-GI engine consists of two strokes and adopts a diesel cycle in which high-pressure natural gas around 300 bar is directly injected into the combustion chamber near the top dead center of the piston.

본 발명은, 액화가스를 가압 및 기화시켜 엔진의 연료로 공급하는 시스템과, 증발가스를 압축시켜 엔진의 연료로 공급하는 시스템을 동시에 운전하는 경우에, 증발가스의 재액화 효율 및 재액화량을 증가시킬 수 있는, 선박용 증발가스 처리 시스템 및 방법을 제공하고자 한다.The present invention, when a system for pressurizing and vaporizing liquefied gas and supplying it as engine fuel and a system for compressing and supplying boil-off gas to engine fuel are simultaneously operated, the re-liquefaction efficiency and re-liquefaction amount of boil-off gas can be increased.

When the compressor 200 includes a cylinder of oil supply lubrication method, the boil-off gas is compressed by the compressor 200 and a small amount of lubricating oil may be mixed in the boil-off gas, and the lubricating oil mixed in the boil-off gas is cooled in the second heat exchanger 120 and the first heat exchanger 110 and may block the flow path of the heat exchanger, so it is necessary to filter it out. The first lubricant separation device 310 may be a coalescer.

Since the fluid is cooled to cryogenic temperatures through the second heat exchanger 120, the first heat exchanger 110, and the first pressure reducing device 410, the third lubricant separator 330 is designed for cryogenic use. In addition, since the lubricating oil mixed in the cryogenic fluid is in a solid (or solidified) state below the pour point, the third lubricating oil separator 330 filters out the lubricating oil in a solid (or solidified) state.
