Abstract

The invention provides a hydrogen and natural gas combined liquefaction system and process. The system comprises a DMR precooling unit, a refrigeration unit, a J-B cryogenic unit, an expansion liquefaction unit, a natural gas liquefaction pipeline and a hydrogen liquefaction pipeline. The DMR precooling unit is coupled with the refrigeration unit through a first-stage countercurrent heat exchanger; the DMR pre-cooling unit is connected with the J-B deep cooling unit through a first-stage ortho-parahydrogen converter; the natural gas liquefaction pipeline sequentially penetrates through the first-stage countercurrent heat exchanger and the second-stage countercurrent heat exchanger and is connected to the natural gas expansion machine. A hydrogen liquefaction pipeline sequentially penetrates through the first-stage countercurrent heat exchanger, the second-stage countercurrent heat exchanger, the third-stage countercurrent heat exchanger, the first-stage ortho-para hydrogen converter, the fourth-stage countercurrent heat exchanger, the second-stage ortho-para hydrogen converter, the fifth-stage countercurrent heat exchanger, the third-stage ortho-para hydrogen converter and the sixth-stage countercurrent heat exchanger and is connected to a hydrogen expansion machine. The invention further provides a hydrogen and natural gas combined liquefaction process adopting the system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of natural gas liquefaction, and particularly relates to a combined liquefaction system and process of hydrogen and natural gas. Background technique [0002] LNG is an important form of natural gas storage and transportation. It is not only an important means of importing natural gas, but also an indispensable technical means for developing remote and scattered gas field resources. At the same time, the hydrogen energy industry has begun to flourish, and storage and transportation issues are the key to restricting the large-scale development of hydrogen energy. Similar to the development route of natural gas, liquid hydrogen storage and transportation is also expected to occupy a very important position in the future. Natural gas and hydrogen have similar properties and belong to both clean energy sources. In the future, the two will develop in parallel, complement each other's advantages, and play an impo...
