Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zur Speicherung von Brenngas, insbesondere Erdgas.The The invention relates to a method and a device for storage of fuel gas, especially natural gas.
Der Erdgasbedarf privater und industrieller Verbraucher ist durch saisonale und tageszeitliche Schwankungen geprägt. Zum Ausgleich der Verbrauchsschwankungen werden Erdgasspeicher betrieben. Zur Abdeckung des Spitzenverbrauchs, insbesondere zur Abdeckung des hohen Erdgasbedarfs für Heizzwecke bei tiefen Wintertemperaturen werden in Gastransportnetzen kommunaler Gasversorger entsprechend hohe Kapazitäten bereitgestellt. Neben großen unterirdischen Erdgasspeichern sind Einrichtungen zum Abpuffern von Verbrauchsspitzen wie Röhrenspeicher und Druckkugelbehälter bekannt. Die Kapazitäten der zuletzt genannten Gasspeicher sind allerdings auf mehrere Stunden Einspeicher- bzw. Ausspeicherzeit begrenzt und deshalb nur zum Ausgleich von tageszeitlichen Verbrauchsschwankungen geeignet. Zudem sind die spezifischen Investitionskosten solcher Gasspeicher hoch. Die Belieferung mit Erdgas ist deshalb mit einem relativ hohen Transport- bzw. Leistungspreis belastet. Ferner haben herkömmliche Gasspeicher relative große Bauvolumina und somit einen hohen Platzbedarf.Of the Natural gas needs of private and industrial consumers is due to seasonal and daily fluctuations. To compensate for the fluctuations in consumption Natural gas storage facilities are operated. To cover peak consumption, in particular to cover the high natural gas demand for heating purposes at low winter temperatures gas transmission networks become more municipal Gas suppliers provided correspondingly high capacities. In addition to large underground Natural gas storage facilities are facilities for buffering consumption peaks such as pipe storage and pressure ball container known. The capacities However, the last-mentioned gas storage is for several hours Einspeicher- or Ausspeicherzeit limited and therefore only to compensate suitable for daily consumption fluctuations. In addition are the specific investment costs of such gas storage high. The Supply of natural gas is therefore associated with a relatively high transport or performance price charged. Furthermore, conventional gas stores have relative size Construction volumes and thus a high space requirement.

Anstelle des Begriffes „Wärmetauscher" kann im vorliegenden Kontext auch der Begriff „Wärmeübertrager" verwendet werden.Instead of the term "heat exchanger" can be used in the present Context also the term "heat exchanger" can be used.
Ein wesentliches Kennzeichen der Erfindung ist die Verwendung eines oder mehrerer Wärmetauscher, um die Wärme, die in dem einen Gasteilstrom bei dessen Verdichtung entsteht, für die Erwärmung des anderen, zu entspannenden Gasteilstromes zu nutzen, und der Antrieb des Verdichters durch die Arbeitsmaschine, mittels welcher besagter Gasteilstrom entspannt wird.One An essential feature of the invention is the use of a or more heat exchangers, to the heat, which arises in the one partial gas flow during the compression, for the heating of the others to use relaxing gas stream, and the drive of the compressor by the working machine, by means of which said Gas partial stream is relaxed.
Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren wird ein Teil der Druckenergie des verdichteten, über die Versorgungsleitung (Hochdruckleitung) zugeführten Brenngases für die weitere Verdichtung und Verflüssigung eines Gasteilstromes genutzt. Durch die erfindungsgemäße Kopplung des Verdichters mit der den anderen Gasteilstrom entspannenden Arbeitsmaschine (z.B. Entspannungsturbine) muss keine zusätzliche Antriebsenergie zugeführt werden, was wirtschaftlich von Vorteil ist.at the method according to the invention Part of the pressure energy of the compressed, via the supply line (High pressure line) supplied fuel gas for the further compression and liquefaction used a gas partial stream. By the coupling according to the invention of the compressor with the other partial gas stream relaxing work machine (e.g., expansion turbine) no additional drive energy needs to be supplied which is economically advantageous.
Ein weiterer wirtschaftlicher Vorteil der Erfindung besteht darin, dass sie keine zusätzliche Wärmeenergie erfordert, welche üblicherweise zur Erwärmung (Beheizung) von Erdgas bei dessen Entspannung aus einer Hochdruckversorgungsleitung auf Mittel- oder Niederdruck zum Zwecke der weiteren Verteilung erforderlich ist, um eine mögliche Vereisung der Entspannungsanlagen aufgrund des Joule-Thompson Effektes zu verhindern.One Another economic advantage of the invention is that she no extra Thermal energy which usually requires for warming (Heating) of natural gas during its expansion from a high pressure supply line Medium or low pressure required for further distribution is to a possible Icing of the expansion plants due to the Joule-Thompson effect to prevent.
Durch die Verflüssigung des Brenngases (Erdgases) lässt sich eine platzsparende Gasspeicherung erzielen. Während zum Beispiel auf 20 bar verdichtetes Erdgas ca. 5 % des Volumens von Erdgas im Normzustand einnimmt, beansprucht verflüssigtes Erdgas (Methan), das auf –162 °C gekühlt ist, nur ca. 0,17 % des Volumens des Normgases.By the liquefaction of the fuel gas (natural gas) to achieve a space-saving gas storage. While to Example for compressed natural gas at 20 bar approx. 5% of the volume of Natural gas in the normal state, claims liquefied Natural gas (methane) cooled to -162 ° C, only about 0.17% of the volume of the standard gas.
Zur Weiterverwendung wird das bei Durchführung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens verflüssigte Brenngas (Methan) erwärmt. Auch lassen sich mit der Erwärmung des Brenngases weitere Verfahren verbinden, für die die Ausnutzung eines besonders niedrigen Temperaturniveaus vorteilhaft ist; hierzu gehören beispielsweise die Zerlegung von Luft, die Herstellung von kristallinem CO2, sowie die direkte Anwendung von flüssigem Methan, beispielsweise zur Stromerzeugung durch Direkteinspritzung in Diesel-Blockheizkraftwerken oder die Vorkühlung der in Gasturbinen angesaugten Luft.For further use liquefied when carrying out the method according to the invention fuel gas (methane) is heated. Also can be combined with the heating of the fuel gas, other methods for which the use of a particularly low temperature level is advantageous; These include, for example, the decomposition of air, the production of crystalline CO 2 , as well as the direct use of liquid methane, for example, for power generation by direct injection in diesel combined heat and power plants or pre-cooling sucked in gas turbines air.
Ferner kann mittels eines Stirlingmotors das hohe Temperaturgefälle zwischen verflüssigtem Brenngas (Methan) und üblicher Umgebungstemperatur (Außentemperatur) genutzt werden, um Gasmengen zu verdampfen und weitere Energie zu gewinnen.Further can by means of a Stirling engine, the high temperature gradient between liquefied fuel gas (Methane) and more usual Ambient temperature (outside temperature) can be used to vaporize gas volumes and add more energy win.
Eine vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens sieht vor, dass der Gasteilstrom, aus dem Flüssiggas erzeugt werden soll, in mehreren Stufen verdichtet und zwischen den Verdichtungsstufen gekühlt wird. Auf diese Weise lässt sich der Wirkungsgrad des Verdichtungsprozesses verbessern.A advantageous embodiment of the method according to the invention provides that the partial gas flow, from the liquefied gas should be generated, condensed in several stages and between the compression stages cooled becomes. That way you can improve the efficiency of the compression process.

The one in this one Work machine (expansion turbine) generated power is thereby preferably for driving the compressor, a generator and / or used another machine.
In einer anderen bevorzugten Ausgestaltung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens ist vorgesehen, dass zumindest ein Teil des verdichteten, gekühlten und zum Zwecke der Verflüssigung entspannten Gasteilstromes zur Kühlung von noch auf höherem Druckniveau befindlichen Gas desselben Gasteilstromes genutzt wird. Vorzugsweise wird dabei der zur Kühlung genutzte Teil des Gasteilstromes anschließend dem entspannten, ersten Gasteilstrom, d.h. dem nicht zu verflüssigenden Gasteilstrom zugegeben.In another preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention is provided that at least part of the compacted, cooled and for the purpose of liquefaction relaxed gas partial flow for cooling even at a higher pressure level located gas of the same partial gas flow is used.
