WÄRTSILÄ BIOGAS LIQUEFACTION

How does the Wärtsilä MR Liquefaction Plant work?

A pre-cooling system is used to cool (-10°C) both the clean gas (upstream the Cryogenic Heat Exchanger), and the MR (upstream the separator). By doing this,
the liquefaction system will have constant and stable operation conditions independent of ambient variations. Furthermore, it also contributes to energy saving.

The pre-cooling is performed by a chiller. The cooling demand of the pre-cooling plant will vary with required liquefaction capacity and ambient temperature. The
capacity of the chiller is controlled by a variable frequency drive, giving efficient operation also at part load.

The mixed refrigerant (MR) side works according to the following principles: Compressed MR is cooled to partially liquefied state, and split in a liquid fraction
and a vapor fraction in a separator. In the Liquefier, part of the MR stream is used for cooling the MR itself.

The MR compressor is also equipped with VFD to maintain flexibility and efficiency in adapting different modes of liquefaction.
