A comparative study of Phillips optimized cascade and APCI propane pre-cooled mixed refrigerant LNG liquefaction processes

published Feb 15, 2012 - 8 pages

The refrigeration and liquefaction section is the key element of the LNG plant. There are a lot of licensed processes available with varying degrees of application and experience. The basic principles for cooling and liquefying the gas using refrigerants involve matching as closely as possible the cooling/heating curves of the process gas and the refrigerant. This results in a moreefficient thermodynamic process requiring less power per unit of LNG produced. This applies toall liquefaction proce
