LPG-recovery processes for baseload LNG plants examined.

Type of article: Article

Summary

With demand on the rise, LPG produced from a baseload LNG plant becomes more attractive as a revenue earning product similar to LNG. Efficient use of gas expanders in baseload LNG plants for LPG production therefore becomes more important. Several process variations for LPG recovery in baseload LNG plants are reviewed in the article. Exergy analysis (based on the Second Law of Thermodynamics) is applied to three cases to compare energy efficiency resulting from integration with the main liquefaction process.
