Integration of a natural gas liquefaction system, a hydrogen production system, and power generation system to increase CO2 capture and improve overall plant efficiency. The predominantly methane endflash is sent to the hydrogen production system which produces hydrogen and CO2. The CO2 may be captured or beneficially used. At least a portion of the hydrogen produced is used to fuel gas turbines in the power generation which, in turn, provides power for the refrigeration compressor of the natural gas liquefaction system—either in the form of mechanical work or electricity.

Devices, systems, and methods for liquefied natural gas production facilities are disclosed herein. A liquefied natural gas (LNG) production facility includes a liquefaction unit and a gas turbine. The liquefaction unit condenses natural gas vapor into liquefied natural gas. The LNG production facility further includes at least one post-combustion capture unit that captures a carbon dioxide (CO2)-rich stream from a flue gas stream of the gas turbine. The LNG production facility also includes a sequestration compression unit that compresses at least one CO2-rich stream from the at least one post-combustion capture unit.

A method for exhaust waste energy recovery at the internal combustion engine polygeneration plant with the gas engine or gas turbine prime movers which includes supplying this plant with any on-site available methaneous gas (MG), converting from 20 to 30% of supplied MG into electric or mechanical power and producing a liquefied MG (LMG) co-product from the other 80-70% of supplied MG at a rate of 0.5-0.9 ton/h for each MW of engine output through converting and harnessing an engine exhaust as an effective refrigerant.

A system which integrates a power production system and an energy storage system represented by gas liquefaction systems is provided.

An LNG refrigerant compressor train (1) is disclosed. The train comprises: a driver section (11), drivingly coupled to a compressor section (13) through a shaft line (1). The compressor section is comprised of at least one refrigerant fluid compressor, driven into rotation by the driver section (11).

The system comprises: a main driver configured for rotating at a substantially constant rotational speed; a rotating load configured to be driven into rotation by the main driver; a controller, for controllably adjusting a load rotational speed; a variable speed transmission, arranged between the main driver and the load and comprised of a speed summing gear arrangement having a first input shaft, a second input shaft and an output shaft; an auxiliary driver, mechanically coupled to the second input shaft of the speed summing gear arrangement. The first input shaft of the speed summing gear arrangement is drivingly coupled to the main driver. The output shaft of the speed summing gear arrangement is drivingly coupled to the rotating load. The speed of the output shaft is a combination of a speed of the main driver and of a speed of the auxiliary driver.

Processes for recovering electrical power from a process unit waste heat steam generation system are described. A power-recovery turbine reduces the pressure of a stream of superheated steam to a pressure lower than that needed by the steam reboiler for use in other process units or equipment in the plant.
