Summary: Liquefied natural gas (LNG) is a commercially attractive phase of the commodity that facilitates the efficient handling and transportation of natural gas around the world. The LNG industry, using technologies proven over decades of development, continues to expand its markets, diversify its supply chains and increase its share of the global natural gas trade. The Handbook of Liquefied Natural Gas is a timely book as the industry is currently developing new large sources of supply and the technologies have evolved in recent years to enable offshore infrastructure to develop and handle resources in more remote and harsher environments. It is the only book of its kind, covering the many aspects of the LNG supply chain from liquefaction to regasification by addressing the LNG industries' fundamentals and markets, as well as detailed engineering and design principles. A unique, well-documented, and forward-thinking work, this reference book provides an ideal platform for scientists, engineers, and other professionals involved in the LNG industry to gain a better understanding of the key basic and advanced topics relevant to LNG projects in operation and/or in planning and development. Highlights the developments in the natural gas liquefaction industries and the challenges in meeting environmental regulations Provides guidelines in utilizing the full potential of LNG assets Offers advices on LNG plant design and operation based on proven practices and design experience Emphasizes technology selection and innovation with focus on a "fit-for-purpose design Updates code and regulation, safety, and security requirements for LNG applications.Summary: Front Cover -- Handbook of Liquefied Natural Gas -- Copyright -- Dedication -- Contents -- Authors' Biographical Sketches -- Contributors -- Preface -- Endorsements -- Chapter 1 - LNG Fundamentals -- 1.1 Introduction -- 1.2 Monetizing stranded gas -- 1.3 LNG characteristics -- 1.4 Traditional LNG supply chain -- 1.5 Offshore LNG supply chain -- 1.6 LNG environmental aspects -- 1.7 Costs and economic implications of LNG facilities -- 1.8 LNG contracts and project development -- 1.9 LNG trade -- References -- Chapter 2 - Gas Conditioning and NGL Recovery Technologies -- 2.1 Introduction -- 2.2 LNG production plants -- References -- Chapter 3 - Natural Gas Liquefaction -- 3.1 Introduction -- 3.2 Natural gas liquefaction technology -- 3.3 Offshore natural gas liquefaction -- References -- Chapter 4 - Energy and Exergy Analyses of Natural Gas Liquefaction Cycles -- 4.1 Introduction -- 4.2 Refrigeration/liquefaction cycle principles -- 4.3 Refrigerant selections -- 4.4 Fundamentals of energy and exergy analysis -- 4.5 Energy and exergy analyses of natural gas liquefaction cycles -- References -- Chapter 5 - Natural Gas Liquefaction Cycle Enhancements and Optimization -- 5.1 Introduction -- 5.2 Natural gas liquefaction cycle enhancement types -- 5.3 Energy consumption enhancement options by recovering process losses and waste heat -- 5.4 Brief introduction to optimization -- 5.5 Liquefaction cycle optimization -- 5.6 Driver cycle optimization -- 5.7 Mobile LNG plants optimal design challenges -- References -- Chapter 6 - Process Control and Automation of LNG Plants and Import Terminals -- 6.1 Introduction -- 6.2 Objectives of LNG plant automation -- 6.3 LNG plant process control/automation development and functionalities -- 6.4 Process control of key units in LNG plants -- 6.5 Advanced process control and optimization of LNG plants.PPN: PPN: 787519073Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-26-MYL | ZDB-30-PAD | ZDB-30-PBE | ZDB-30-PQE
