L'invention sera décrite de manière plus détaillée en se référant à la figure. The invention will be described in more detail with reference to the figure.
Dans la figure 1 , le procédé de liquéfaction d'un débit 1 contenant au moins 95% mol, voire au moins 99% mol de dioxyde de carbone s'effectue par refroidissement par échange de chaleur indirect avec une source froide. L'alimentation en CO2, en fonction de sa pression, est faite en inter-étage d'un compresseur de cycle 3, entre les étages 3B et 3C. In FIG. 1, the liquefaction process of a flow rate 1 containing at least 95 mol% or even at least 99 mol% of carbon dioxide is carried out by cooling by indirect heat exchange with a cold source. The CO2 supply, as a function of its pressure, is made inter-stage of a cycle compressor 3, between the stages 3B and 3C.
Les deux derniers étages 3C, 3D de ce compresseur 3 compriment le débit 1 jusqu'à atteindre une pression suffisante permettant de condenser le courant gazeux en face de la source froide 5 disponible sur site (par exemple de l'eau glacée) dans un échangeur de chaleur 7. The last two stages 3C, 3D of this compressor 3 compress the flow rate 1 until a sufficient pressure is obtained to condense the gaseous flow in front of the cold source 5 available on site (for example ice-cold water) in a heat exchanger of heat 7.
Le CO2 ainsi condensé à haute pression va subir une succession de détentes dans des vannes V1 , V2, afin de s'auto-refroidir par génération d'un gaz.
La première détente dans la vanne V1 se fera préférentiellement à la pression d'entrée de la dernière roue 3D du compresseur de cycle 3. Ainsi, le gaz généré 4 suite à la détente du liquide à l'équilibre détendu provenant du séparateur de phases S1 peut être recyclé en amont de la dernière roue du compresseur de cycle. The CO2 thus condensed at high pressure will undergo a succession of detents in valves V1, V2, in order to self-cool by generating a gas. The first expansion in the valve V1 is preferentially done at the inlet pressure of the last 3D wheel of the cycle compressor 3. Thus, the gas generated 4 following expansion of the relaxed equilibrium liquid from the phase separator S1 can be recycled upstream of the last wheel of the cycle compressor.
Une seconde étape de détente du liquide du séparateur de phases S1 dans une seconde vanne V2 est préférentiellement envisagée afin de réduire la pression du CO2 liquéfié, avant d'entrée dans l'échangeur principal 9, permettant ainsi un gain CAPEX sur ce même échangeur. Là encore, la pression de détente est choisie afin de permettre le recyclage d'un gaz 6 d'un deuxième séparateur de phases S2 en amont de l'avant dernière roue 3C de compression. A second stage of expansion of the liquid of the phase separator S1 in a second valve V2 is preferably envisaged in order to reduce the pressure of the liquefied CO2 before entering the main exchanger 9, thus enabling a CAPEX gain on the same exchanger. Again, the expansion pressure is chosen to allow the recycling of a gas 6 of a second phase separator S2 upstream of the penultimate compression wheel 3C.
Cette succession de détentes dans les vannes V1 , V2 permet de refroidir le CO2 liquéfié 18 tout en limitant l'impact OPEX en recyclant le plus possible dans les derniers étages de compressions. This succession of detents in the valves V1, V2 makes it possible to cool the liquefied CO2 while limiting the OPEX impact by recycling as much as possible in the last stages of compression.
Une fois partiellement détendu et refroidi, le courant de CO2 liquide 18 va entrer dans un échangeur de chaleur 9 afin d'y être fortement sous-refroidi. Après sous-refroidissement le liquide 18 est divisé en deux parties. La partie 1 1 est détendue dans une vanne V3 pour former un produit liquide à la pression requise par le client, typiquement 7bara. Une partie 13 se vaporise contre le liquide 18 dans l'échangeur de chaleur 9, après détente dans une vanne V4. La détente dans la vanne V4 amène le liquide jusqu'à atteindre une température la plus proche possible de celle du point triple (-56.5°C). Once partially expanded and cooled, the liquid CO2 stream 18 will enter a heat exchanger 9 to be strongly subcooled therein. After subcooling the liquid 18 is divided into two parts. Part 1 1 is expanded in a valve V3 to form a liquid product at the pressure required by the customer, typically 7bara. A part 13 vaporizes against the liquid 18 in the heat exchanger 9, after expansion in a valve V4. The expansion in valve V4 brings the liquid up to a temperature as close as possible to that of the triple point (-56.5 ° C).
Le CO2 basse pression vaporisé 15 est ensuite recyclé aux premiers étages 3A, 3B du compresseur de cycle 3 afin d'assurer un rendement de liquéfaction de 100%. Entre les étages 3B et 3, il est mélangé avec le débit 1 . The vaporised low pressure CO2 15 is then recycled to the first stages 3A, 3B of the cycle compressor 3 to ensure a liquefaction efficiency of 100%. Between stages 3B and 3, it is mixed with flow 1.
L'échangeur de chaleur 9 mentionné ci-dessus sera un échangeur de type à tubes et à calandre (en anglais « Shell and Tubes »), avec le débit 18 à refroidir dans les tubes et le liquide détendu 13 à une pression proche de celle du point triple dans la calandre, afin d'éviter tout risque d'accident, suite à une éventuelle prise en glace de ce même courant (notamment dans le cas où le compresseur de cycle 3, dans lequel va retourner le liquide vaporisé 15, aspire trop et fasse chuter la pression en dessous de celle du point triple du CO2).
The heat exchanger 9 mentioned above will be a tube and shell type heat exchanger (in English "shell and tubes"), with the flow 18 to be cooled in the tubes and the expanded liquid 13 at a pressure close to that of the triple point in the calender, in order to avoid any risk of accident, following a possible ice setting of this same current (especially in the case where the cycle compressor 3, in which will return the vaporized liquid 15, aspires too much and drop the pressure below that of the triple point of CO2).
