Applied LNG provides refrigeration for liquefaction of natural gas. The Solar compressor driven by the Centaur 40 gas turbine is a key component to Applied LNG's operation. ...
The University of Michigan (U-M) is a public research university. Founded in 1817, U-M is the oldest and largest university in Michigan. It was established 20 years before the territory became a state. Since 1871, U-M has been a coeducational institution. Today, it enrolls approximately 32,000 undergraduate and 16,000 graduate ...
At least that is the way it must seem to manufacturers, packagers and operators of natural gas-fired compressor engines. The first phase of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s multitiered New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for stationary spark-ignited engines called for maximum emissions of 2.0 grams of nitrogen oxide (NOx), ...
As shown in the chart below, pneumatic controllers have been viewed as a significant source of greenhouse gas emissions!. Since natural gas is often an abundant pressure source, it is common practice to tap this gas as the supply for the pneumatic instrumentation. ...
High pressure fog enables pipelines to maintain production levels and stay online during hot weather conditions. After new compressor units were installed at a North Carolina compression facility, the cooling systems began to reach capacity causing the compressor to overheat due to hot weather conditions. The plant compression engineer chose MicroCool fog systems to provide adjunct cooling ...
To augment the CCGT Power Plant capacity, it was necessary to upgrade the gas booster station which used GE Waukesha’s 4 x 12VATGL engines to drive the compressor. The gas engines driving the compressor had to reliably enable the fuel gas compressors to handle fluctuating ...

(ACS) designed and supplied a Hurricane Cyclone System for EDP Gás, a public service company for natural gas distribution. EDP Gás focuses its activity on the development and operation of the public network distribution of natural gas in the north coastal region of Portugal. ACS was contacted with the objective of ...
One of the key applications for our video borescope involves the maintenance and repair if piston engines used in natural gas compressors. With the rise of US natural gas production, this sector of the economy is poised for significant growth, and fast, efficient maintenance of the compressors ...
The liquified natural gas (LNG) regasification process is a source of cold exergy capable of being recovered for the exploitation of energy conversion. ...
Engines using natural gas(CNG compressor) as fuel, run smooth, low noise, no coke, prolong engine life and require frequent replacement of oil and spark plugs, maintenance cost savings of more than 60%. ...
Beginning in 2011, major sources of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions that trigger Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) permitting must implement Best Available Control Technology (BACT) for GHG emissions from new and modified sources. ...
Site: Natural Gas Compressor Station Contaminant: BTEX Soil Type: Sandy Clays Injection Cost: $60,000 (material & labor) Plume Size (before): 6600 sq. ft. ...
A unique and proven wastewater treatment system is being used at several natural gas compressor stations. Oil leakage and spills when servicing compressors together with maintenance wash-down water, are being satisfactorily treated with oil removal systems. ...
Stationary reciprocating internal combustion engines provide the horsepower to compress natural gas in a variety of applications at every stage of the gas supply chain–from production and gathering, to processing and storage, to natural gas transmission and distribution. The spark-ignited engines packaged with ...
The Pipeline For almost 100 years, natural gas pipelines have been synonymous with growth, innovation, high standards, and environmental consciousness. In the mid 90’s, one of the largest volume gas transmission companies in the United States chose to begin addressing a problem of long standing. The Problem A common problem for many ...
Description Natural gas compressor station in northern Alberta, Canada, powered by Waukesha 7042 GSI engines. Challenge The challenge was to meet emission targets for NOx, CO and non-methane hydrocarbons, for a variety of compressor engines with different exhaust configurations. Solution DCL supplied the ...
