Process Simulation and Analysis of Methane Refrigeration Cycle for LNG Vapour Recovery

Liquefy Natural Gas (LNG) is the liquid phase from the Natural gas that extracted and purified. Natural Gas manufacturer turns gas to liquid to make more storage space and to make transportation easier. To turn the natural gas to liquid, the gas needs to cool down to -160ᵒC. The real challenge is no...
