Embodiment Construction

[0028] Further explain below in conjunction with accompanying drawing:

[0029] Such as figure 2 As shown, the purified raw natural gas first enters the first-stage plate-fin heat exchanger 51 and is pre-cooled to -20 to -40°C; then continues to enter the second-stage plate-fin heat exchanger 52 and is cooled to -50 to After -60°C, it enters the heavy hydrocarbon separator 72 for gas-liquid separation, and the gas phase stream separated from the top of the heavy hydrocarbon separator 72 continues to enter the secondary heat exchanger 52 until it is cooled to -80~-100°C; stage plate-fin heat exchanger 53, in which it is subcooled to -145~-165°C, and the subcooled liquefied natural gas stream is throttled by the throttle valve 63 to obtain LNG products, and sent to the LNG storage tank 8 store.

Abstract

The invention relates to a device for liquefying natural gas via the refrigeration of a single mixed refrigerant, comprising a motor-driven three-section mixed refrigerant compressor, three coolers, five gas-liquid separators, two liquid pumps, three throttling devices, three fin-type heat exchangers and one LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) storage tank. According the device, the mixed refrigerant is compressed and separated step by step by using the three-section mixed refrigeration compressor, and the liquid separated in each step is pressurized by the liquid pumps and then directly enters the heat exchanger group for heat exchange, thereby reducing the power consumption of gas compression; the three-stage refrigeration cycle is adopted to ensure that the heat exchange curves of the cold fluid and the hot fluid in the whole heat exchange process are better matched, therefore, the flow of the mixed refrigerant is effectively decreased and the energy consumption of the device is finally reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the liquefaction production of other hydrocarbon-rich gases, and in particular relates to a method and device for liquefying natural gas by using single mixed working medium refrigeration. technical background [0002] Due to its environmental protection, natural gas has become the best substance to replace other fuels, and its application fields have gradually expanded to power generation, automobile gas, industrial gas, urban residential gas, chemical gas, etc. [0003] With the growth of natural gas consumption, as one of the most efficient forms of supply and use of natural gas, the trade volume of liquefied natural gas has become one of the fastest growing areas of the energy market. The continuous development of the liquefied natural gas industry has put forward higher requirements for natural gas liquefaction methods and devices in terms of energy consumption, investment and efficiency. [0004] At present, relatively m...
