Description

Description of the Related Art A Treatment System Liquefied Gas

The present invention relates to a liquefied gas processing system.

Liquefied natural gas (Liquefied natural gas), Liquefied petroleum gas (Liquefied petroleum gas) and other liquefied gas are widely used in place of gasoline or diesel in recent technology development.

Liquefied natural gas is a liquefied natural gas obtained by refining natural gas collected from a gas field. It is a colorless and transparent liquid with almost no pollutants and high calorific value. It is an excellent fuel. On the other hand, liquefied petroleum gas is a liquid fuel made from compressed propane (C 3 H 8 ) and butane (C 4 H 10 ), which are derived from petroleum in oil field, at room temperature. Liquefied petroleum gas, like liquefied natural gas, is colorless and odorless and is widely used as fuel for household, business, industrial, and automotive use.

Such liquefied gas is stored in a liquefied gas storage tank installed on the ground or stored in a liquefied gas storage tank provided in a ship which is a means of transporting the ocean. The liquefied natural gas is liquefied to a volume of 1/600 The liquefaction of liquefied petroleum gas has the advantage of reducing the volume of propane to 1/260 and the content of butane to 1/230, resulting in high storage efficiency.

However, since the liquefied gas is kept in a liquefied state by increasing the pressure or lowering the temperature, it is important to secure the heat insulating property of the liquefied gas storage tank because the phase change due to external heat penetration is a concern. However, since the liquefied gas storage tank can not achieve perfect heat insulation, a part of the liquefied gas stored in the liquefied gas storage tank is phase-changed into the evaporated gas which is the gas by heat transmitted from the outside.

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, it is required to develop an effective treatment method of the evaporation gas generated by external heat penetration.

In addition, the liquefied gas storage tank maintains a state of being higher than the temperature of the liquefied gas in which the internal temperature is injected by natural thermal infiltration from the outside while being empty, and bunching the liquefied gas from the main source to the liquefied gas storage tank, The liquefied gas supplied to the liquefied gas storage tank is vaporized to generate a large amount of boil-off gas (BOG). In the conventional method, the internal pressure of the liquefied gas storage tank amplified by the generated vapor gas In order to reduce the risk of damaging the tank, the evaporation gas is merely discharged to the outside or burned, but the evaporation gas can not be utilized at all, resulting in a waste of energy. Therefore, there is a need to develop an effective treatment method of evaporated gas generated in the liquefied gas storage tank at the time of liquefying gas bunkering.

Hereinafter, the liquefied gas may be used to encompass all gaseous fuels generally stored in a liquid state, such as LNG or LPG, ethylene, ammonia, etc. In the case where the gas is not in a liquid state by heating or pressurization, . This also applies to the evaporative gas. For convenience, LNG can be used to mean both NG (natural gas) as well as NG as a supercritical state for the sake of convenience. The evaporation gas generated from the LNG includes not only gaseous evaporation gas but also liquefied evaporation gas Can be used to mean.

In addition, the liquefied nitrogen can be used to mean nitrogen (LN 2 ) which is generally stored in a liquid state, and when it is not in a liquid state by heating or pressurization, the liquefied nitrogen can be expressed conveniently as liquefied nitrogen. (N 2 ) as well as the liquid / gaseous state in which the liquefied nitrogen has not been completely vaporized.

The main supply source 110 is installed on land or in the sea such as a liquefied gas production bunker or a liquefied gas bunker port to supply liquefied gas to a liquefied gas carrier or liquefied gas propulsion line that carries liquefied gas or uses liquefied gas as fuel. And may be connected to the liquefied gas storage tank 120, which will be described later, by the liquefied gas lube line 101. The main source 110 installed on the sea may include a bunkering ship.

The liquefied gas storage tank 120 may be connected to the mainstream source 110 by the liquefied gas liquefaction line 101 to receive the liquefied gas from the mainstream source 110, For example, a liquefied gas carrier or a liquefied gas propulsion line, and the liquefied gas must be stored in a liquid state, which may be in the form of a pressure tank. It goes without saying that the customer 130 and the liquid nitrogen storage tank 140 to be described later together with the liquefied gas storage tank 120 may be provided in all ships that transport liquefied gas or use liquefied gas as fuel.

The liquefied gas storage tank 120 may be connected to the demander 130 through the liquefied gas supply line 102 to supply fuel to the demander 130 when the liquefied gas propulsion line is provided.

Specifically, considering that the boiling point of the liquid nitrogen stored in the liquid nitrogen storage tank 140 is -196 ° C., the temperature of the relatively high temperature nitrogen gas supplied to the liquefied gas storage tank 120 is, for example, -150 Lt; 0 > C to -50 < 0 > C, and the temperature of the relatively low temperature of the liquefied nitrogen may be, for example, -190 DEG C to -150 DEG C.

In order to shorten the bunkering preparation time, it is preferable to increase the supply amount of the relatively low temperature of the liquefied nitrogen. The temperature of the liquefied gas storage tank 120, which can prevent the damage of the tank due to the internal temperature drop of the liquefied gas storage tank 120, The opening of the second valve 148 can be efficiently widened by monitoring the state, thereby shortening the bunkering preparation time.

The liquefied nitrogen storage tank 140 is connected to the liquefied gas storage tank 120 so that the internal temperature of the liquefied gas storage tank 120 is maintained below the boiling point of the liquefied gas before the liquefied gas bunching, Thereby cooling down the liquefied gas storage tank 120.

At this time, the second valve 148 is kept closed. The internal temperature of the liquefied gas storage tank 120 is monitored in real time while the nitrogen gas is being supplied and when the internal temperature of the liquefied gas storage tank 120 is lowered to some extent, the opening of the first valve 144 is gradually The opening degree of the second valve 148 is gradually widened so that nitrogen gas and liquefied nitrogen are mixedly supplied into the liquefied gas storage tank 120. The first valve 144 is closed and the second valve 148 is opened so that liquefied nitrogen is supplied into the liquefied gas storage tank 120 so that the liquefied gas stored in the liquefied gas storage tank 120 Allowing the internal temperature to be maintained at a temperature that allows the initial liquefied gas to subcooled during bunkering. Thereby, the bunkering preparation step is completed, and it is possible to suppress the generation of the evaporation gas inside the liquefied gas storage tank 120 at the time of the bunkering performed subsequently.
