Title

Efficient recovery and integrative utilization of LNG cold energy

Abstract

LNG is one of the important energy more and more used in the present society, due to its distinguishing advantages of convenient transportation, lower emission and higher quality. China will be the largest country of LNG production and consumption in the coming 20-30 years. LNG has the normal boiling temperature of -161C at a common pressure. A great deal of cold energy (about 900 kJ/kg) could be released during its change from liquid to gas for the ultimate burning. Unfortunately theses cold energy won’t be well utilized up to now. The key techniques and efficient methods of LNG cold energy utilization are attracting attention of government, scientists and industries recently. This talk will present possible ways and potential application of LNG cold energy. The feasibility and practical applicability of techniques were analyzed and studied. The different integrative utilization schemes of LNG cold energy are also presented.
