Abstract
A system for processing a product the product being in a gaseous state when at a pressure of 1 bar and a temperature of 283K, said system comprising: at least one liquid product reservoir, a main circuit for extracting a main product in the liquid state from the liquid product reservoir, and a recovery circuit comprising at least one thermal compressor configured to compress a gas at least in part by raising the temperature of said gas or of an intermediate agent such as a metal hydride, by means of a cold source and a hot source, and transfer means for transferring a recovery product resulting from evaporation within the liquid product reservoir to one of said at least one thermal compressor, the cold source of at least one of said thermal compressors being configured to receive cold energy from said main circuit.

A system for processing a product, said product being in the gaseous state when at a pressure of 1 bar and a temperature of 283K, said system comprising:
- at least one liquid product reservoir,
- a main circuit configured to extract a main product in the liquid state from the liquid product reservoir, and
- a recovery circuit comprising at least one thermal compressor configured to compress a gas at least in part by raising the temperature of said gas or of an intermediate agent such as a metal hydride, by means of a cold source and a hot source, and transfer means for transferring a recovery product resulting from evaporation within the liquid product reservoir to one of said at least one thermal compressor, the cold source of at least one of said thermal compressors being configured to receive cold energy from said main circuit.
Process for transforming a product located in a liquid product reservoir, said product being a product which is in the gaseous state when at a pressure of 1 bar and a temperature of 283K, said process comprising the following steps:
- in a main circuit:
- extraction of a main product in liquid state from said liquid product reservoir,
- in a recovery circuit:
- evaporation of liquid product in said liquid product reservoir to obtain a gaseous recovery product,
- transferring said recovery product to at least one thermal compressor,
- in said at least one thermal compressor, compressing said recovery product at least in part by raising the temperature of said recovery product or of an intermediate agent such as a metal hydride, by means of a cold source and a hot source, said cold source receiving cold energy from said main circuit.
