| Summary: | Although the potential for natural gas production in Malaysia is very high, production and distribution facilities are still in the early stages of development. In addition the per capita vehicle ownership is low. But strong moves are being made to develop the natural gas distribution network, and significant increases in vehicle conversions should be seen in the near future. The country at present imports liquid fuels for transport and it seems likely that this will continue, there is a strong case for using locally produced Compress Natural Gas (CNG) as a fuel for both light and heavy duty vehicles for travel in the main cities. The main purpose of this project is to develop the design and fabricate the low pressure adsorb natural gas container. By understand the main property of natural gas and the characteristic of the compress gas, further detail design of the pressure vessels had been developed to give sufficient driving range as a Compress Natural Gas (CNG) and petrol usage vehicle. The pressure vessels had been designed accordance with Pressure Vessel AS ME Code Section VIII Division 1 and are able to withstand pressure up to 130 bars. The pressure vessels is unfired type and also been fixed with thermocouple, temperature controller, pressure relief valve, heater and filling valve to completed the design requirement. This project is based on design and collective information. The main activities of this project are including technical aspects and the design requirement. By information gathered from industrial visit and references book, a discussion is made based to the design requirement and technology involve in Absorbed Natural Gas (ANG). |
