Abstract

The invention discloses a ternary-cycle cascade refrigeration natural gas liquefaction system and a method thereof. Heat is transferred from a relatively low temperature level cycle to an adjacent relatively high temperature level cycle: a first stage propylene refrigeration cycle provides cold energy for natural gas, refrigerant ethene, and formulated refrigerant; a second stage ethene refrigeration cycle provides cold energy for the natural gas and the formulated refrigerant; and a third stage formulated refrigerant refrigeration cycle provides cold energy for the natural gas and the formulated refrigerant itself. Through the cooling by seven heat exchangers and one plate-fin heat exchanger, temperature of the natural gas is reduced gradually till the natural gas is liquefied. In the invention, temperature of purified natural gas is reduced gradually in seven heat exchangers and one plate-fin heat exchanger till the purified natural gas is liquefied. The cold energy needed in a liquefaction process is provided by the three systems of propylene refrigerant, ethene refrigerant, and formulated refrigerant. The systems have abundant adjusting means, and can provide matching cold energy for the natural gas liquefaction process, thereby showing operation flexibility and adaptability to raw materials of the method.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a natural gas liquefaction process, in particular to a three-cycle cascade refrigeration natural gas liquefaction system and method. Background technique [0002] LNG is clean and environmentally friendly, and it has been rapidly promoted in many application fields such as urban gas, industrial fuel, urban gas peak shaving and accident emergency, gas vehicles, and high-end porcelain processing in areas without natural gas pipelines. However, due to the impact of international crude oil prices, the price of natural gas continues to rise, and the cost of raw materials for natural gas liquefaction plants continues to increase, resulting in a continuous decline in the profit margins of liquefaction plants. In recent years, natural gas liquefaction plants at home and abroad have developed towards large-scale and large-scale development. At present, the maximum liquefaction capacity of a single set has reached 7.8 million tons per ye...
