COMPRESSION EMISSIONS EVACUATOR
20240117783 · 2024-04-11 ·

An emissions evacuator system that collects natural gas vented from various components of a natural gas compressor system and directs the vented gases to the intake system of a natural gas engine of the compressor system. The evacuator system utilizes vacuum from an intake system of the natural gas engine contained on compressor packages to suck up the gaseous emissions from various emission sources on the compressor package. These emissions are rendered inert when combusted in the natural gas engine.

System including oxygen separation device

An oxygen separation device includes a substrate and an oxygen ion transport membrane supported on the substrate. The substrate has an air inlet end and a retentate outlet end. An intake air passageway extends through the substrate from the air inlet end to the retentate outlet end. The oxygen ion transport membrane is between the substrate and the intake air passageway and is adapted to separate oxygen atoms from the air in the intake air passageway and to transport the oxygen atoms to the substrate. The oxygen separation device collects the oxygen from the substrate for supply to an internal combustion engine for use as the gas of the gas-fuel mixture.
