Abstract
A method for transferring a highly compressed gas from a reactor into a storage tank with condensation of the gas is disclosed in which the gas is at first liquefied and cooled to a temperature below the storage temperature, then the liquefied gas is expanded and transferred into the storage tank, and after the pressure in the reactor has dropped to about the pressure in the storage tank, the remaining gas in the reactor is transferred by a compressor from the reactor into the storage tank.
Claims4
A method for transferring a highly compressed gas from a reactor into a storage tank with condensation of the gas which comprises at first liquefying and cooling the gas to a temperature below the storage temperature;
- expanding the liquefied gas in a blow-off tank;
- transferring the expanded liquefied gas into the storage tank;
- and after the pressure in the reactor has dropped to about the pressure in the storage tank exhausting any gas remainder portion in the reactor with a compressor and subjecting same to liquefying and cooling with subsequent expansion of said remainder portion in said blow-off tank;
- and transferring said expanded liquefied gas remainder portion to said storage tank.
