I do not have the numbers off the top of my head, but it requires extremely high pressures to liquefy syngas (H2, CH4, CO, CO2, N2) LP (C3H8) works great in tanks because it is densified as a liquid under reasonable pressures in a tank. As the tank nozzle is opened to the atmosphere, useable vapor is produced. I think if you run the numbers you will find that it would not be practical to provide storage tanks due to high pressure requirements or lack of sufficient storage density to be economically attractive. Anyone want to run the numbers and post? -----Original Message----- From: tbollman [mailto:tbollman@twlakes.net] Sent: Wednesday, September 04, 2002 5:07 PM To: gasificationcrestorg Subject: GAS-L: Gas concentration and storage I was wondering if anyone on this list could address the possiblity of compressing producer gas and storing it in LP style gas cylinders? Also, I am curious wether or not anyone has addressed the possibility of filtering ? producer gas with the goal of removing (or reducing) the inert nitrogen. It seems to me that the BTU/Cubic meter could be greatly enhanced if the inert compounds in the gas could be eliminated/reduced. - Gasification List Archives: http://www.crest.org/discussion/gasification/200202/ Gasification List Moderator: Tom Reed, Biomass Energy Foundation, Reedtb2@cs.com www.webpan.com/BEF List-Post: <mailto:gasification@crest.org> List-Help: <mailto:gasification-help@crest.org> List-Unsubscribe: <mailto:gasification-unsubscribe@crest.org> List-Subscribe: <mailto:gasification-subscribe@crest.org> Sponsor the Gasification List: http://www.crest.org/discuss3.html - Other Gasification Events and Information: http://www.bioenergy2002.org http://www.crest.org/articles/static/1/1010424940_7.html Bioenergy http://www.crest.org/articles/static/1/1011975339_7.html Gasification http://www.crest.org/articles/static/1/1011975672_7.html Carbon - Gasification List Archives: http://www.crest.org/discussion/gasification/200202/ Gasification List Moderator: Tom Reed, Biomass Energy Foundation, Reedtb2@cs.com www.webpan.com/BEF List-Post: <mailto:gasification@crest.org> List-Help: <mailto:gasification-help@crest.org> List-Unsubscribe: <mailto:gasification-unsubscribe@crest.org> List-Subscribe: <mailto:gasification-subscribe@crest.org> Sponsor the Gasification List: http://www.crest.org/discuss3.html - Other Gasification Events and Information: http://www.bioenergy2002.org http://www.crest.org/articles/static/1/1010424940_7.html Bioenergy http://www.crest.org/articles/static/1/1011975339_7.html Gasification http://www.crest.org/articles/static/1/1011975672_7.html Carbon
