The invention relates to a device and a process for extracting
helium from
liquefied natural gas (
BOG), comprising a non-condensable
gas separation device and a non-condensable gas refining device; the non-condensable
gas separation device comprises a first
buffer tank connected to the raw gas, and a first compressor, a first
heat exchanger, a
distillation tower, a first cooler, and a first gas-liquid separator connected in sequence after the first
buffer tank; the non-condensable gas refining device comprises a second
heat exchanger connected to the
gas phase outlet of the first gas-liquid separator, and a membrane separation group, a Roots blower, a mixer, a catalytic oxidizer, a second cooler, a third
heat exchanger, a second gas-liquid separator, a
drying tower, a second compressor, and a low-temperature adsorption
tower connected in sequence after the second heat exchanger; the device
BOG is compressed without circulation, and
methane and
helium-containing light components in the
BOG are separated at one time and the
methane is returned to the LNG production device; the device has the advantages of reducing the
energy consumption of the BOG compressor, improving the product
utilization rate, operating economically and stably, being safe and easy to regulate, and being able to adapt to strong load fluctuations.
