Abstract: A method and apparatus for recovering carbon dioxide (CO2) from an oxyfuel combustion engine exhaust stream is described. The method comprises: providing and separating an oxyfuel combustion engine exhaust stream to provide a first liquefied CO2 stream and a first waste gas stream; condensing at least a portion of the first waste gas stream to provide a partly condensed waste gas stream; and separating the condensed waste gas stream to provide a second waste gas stream, and a second liquefied CO2 stream.

Abstract: A method of cooling a boil-off gas (BOG) stream from a liquefied gas tank comprising at least the step of heat exchanging the BOG stream with a first refrigerant in a heat exchanger, the heat exchanger having an entry port and a warmer exit port, and comprising at least the steps of: (a) passing the first refrigerant into the entry port of the heat exchanger and into a first zone of the heat exchanger to exchange heat with the BOG stream, to provide a first warmer refrigerant stream; (b) withdrawing the first warmer refrigerant stream from the heat exchanger at an intermediate exit port between the entry port and the warmer exit port; (c) admixing the first warmer refrigerant stream with an oil-containing refrigerant stream to provide a combined refrigerant stream; (d) passing the combined refrigerant stream into the heat exchanger through an entry port located in a second zone of the heat exchanger that is warmer than the first zone; (e) passing the combined refrigerant stream out of the heat exchanger throu

Abstract: The present invention is a modification of a typical single mixed refrigerant (SMR) cycle for LNG re-liquefaction in particular, that allows the use of a cost-efficient oil-injected screw compressor in the mixed refrigerant system. In comparison with the typical arrangement, the present innovation allows for reduced complexity, fewer pieces of equipment, and reduced capital cost.

Abstract: A linear compressor is provided. The linear compressor may include a shell having a cylindrical shape, a shell cover that covers both open ends of the shell, a cylinder accommodated into the shell and defining a compression space for a refrigerant, a piston that reciprocates within the cylinder in an axial direction to compress the refrigerant within the compression space, a motor assembly including a motor that provides power to the piston and a stator cover that supports the motor, and resonant springs seated on the stator cover that support the piston to allow the piston to perform a resonant motion. The resonant springs may be circularly arranged at three points having a same interval around a center in an axial direction.
