ECONOMIC ADVANTAGES TO EXPLOIT THE CRYOGENIC PROPERTIES OF LNG FOR SOME INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS.

Author(s) : BERGEN J., KEHRMANN J.

Summary

THE COLD ENERGY CONTAINED IN LNG SHOULD BE EXPLOITED FOR ENERGY RECOVERY AND ENVIRONMENTAL REASONS. THE PRODUCTION OF INSTANT COFFEE IS TAKEN FOR EXAMPLE TO DEMONSTRATE THAT THE EXPLOITATION OF LNG COLD IS TECHNICALLY FEASIBLE AND ECONOMIC, PROVIDED THE LNG PRICE IS NOT HIGHER THAN THE MARKET PRICE FOR NATURAL GAS. THE INDUSTRIAL PLANT CAN BE FAR AWAY FROM THE LNG RECEIVING TERMINAL BECAUSE LNG CAN BE TRANSPORTED SAFELY BY ROAD OR RAIL TANK CARS.
