Provided herein are systems and methods for the processing of exhaust gases of industrial processes in order to reduce or eliminate emission of pollutants (including carbon dioxide) and store energy in the form of cryogenic liquids. Advantageously, the provided systems and methods utilize advanced heat exchanger systems to reduce or eliminate the net power required for operation. The heat exchangers are used both to reduce effluent gases to liquid temperatures as well as reheat previously cooled and separated gases, which can generate electricity via a turbo generator. The described systems and method may also produce cryogenic liquid products (Argon, Krypton, liquid Oxygen, liquid Nitrogen, etc.).

A CO2 separation and liquefaction system such as might be used in a carbon capture and sequestration system for a fossil fuel burning power plant is disclosed. The CO2 separation and liquefaction system includes a first cooling stage to cool flue gas with liquid CO2, a compression stage coupled to the first cooling stage to compress the cooled flue gas, a second cooling stage coupled to the compression stage and the first cooling stage to cool the compressed flue gas with a CO2 melt and provide the liquid CO2 to the first cooling stage, and an expansion stage coupled to the second cooling stage to extract solid CO2 from the flue gas that melts in the second cooling stage to provide the liquid CO2.

Herein pipeline pressure, temperature and NGL constituents are manipulated for the transportation and optional storage in a pipeline system of natural gas mixtures or rich mixtures for delivery of chilled Products for downstream applications. Pressure reduction from a last compression section delivers internally chilled Products for reduced capital and operating costs. A high lift compressor station before the pipeline terminus provides pressure differential for Joule-Thompson chilling of the pipeline contents. The chilling step can be retrofitted to existing pipeline systems, and the chilling steep can include a turbo expander or the like for recovery of pipeline pressure energy for power generation. For like throughout, with this higher pressure operation, the effects of enhanced NGL content results in a reduction in diameter of the pipeline by at least one standard size. Substantial overall reduction in energy consumption and associated CO2 emissions is thereby achieved through integrated pipeline/processing applications.

A system and method for cooling, purifying and liquifying a feed gas stream uses liquid nitrogen for cooling the system. After cooling the system, the warmed nitrogen is vented as a vapor.

Optionally, the system includes a compressor or blower and/or a separator.

A system includes a heat exchanger including a first inlet for receiving a first pressurized gas stream and a first outlet for outputting a chilled gas stream produced by the heat exchanger cooling the first pressurized gas stream. The system also includes a turbo expander connected to the first outlet of the heat exchanger for receiving the chilled gas stream from the heat exchanger and producing a partially liquified gas stream, the partially liquified gas stream comprising vapors and LNG. The system further includes at least one separator connected to the turbo expander, wherein the partially liquified gas stream is fed into the at least one separator, and the at least one separator separates the vapors from the LNG.
