Fire and Explosion Safe Technology of Storage and Regasification of Liquefied Petroleum Gas

Аннотация

The technology of storage and regasification of liquefied petroleum gas that implies storage in an isothermal tank and overheating the gas with subsequent supply of the vapor phase to the consumer is offered. The necessary storage and regasification temperatures are achieved by means of utilizing a vapor-compression refrigeration unit in the technological process. The technology allows to improve energy efficiency of the processes, reduce fire-and-explosion hazard, minimize LPG losses, exclude conditions formation of a combustible environment, regulate the storage temperature of LPG of various composition and efficiency of the regasification process, and ensure the composition of volatilized LPG remains constant during regasification.
