  • Publication number: 20250012218
    Abstract: An exhaust air connection receives exhaust air from a separate power generation system. A heat transfer assembly transfers thermal energy from the exhaust air to a source fluid to generate a heated source fluid. A valve regulates a flow of the exhaust air from the exhaust air connection to a heat recovery flow path disposed with the heat transfer assembly and to a bypass flow path bypassing the heat transfer assembly. A control system operates the valve to regulate the flow of the exhaust air. An exhaust releases to atmosphere the exhaust air from at least one of the heat recovery flow path and the bypass flow path.

  • Patent number: 11073242
    Abstract: A system and a method for processing and storing hydrocarbon gas. A gas conditioning and compression transport comprises a gas conditioning system for processing hydrocarbon gas received from the hydrocarbon fuel source and a compression system. The compression system comprises a dual shaft electric motor capable of driving a first compressor and a second compressor to compress the hydrocarbon gas. A gas compression and storage transport receives the processed hydrocarbon gas from the gas conditioning and compression transport. The gas compression and storage transport is capable of directing a first portion of the processed hydrocarbon gas to bypass processing at the gas compression and storage transport and diverting a second portion of the processed hydrocarbon gas for storage. A storage compressor compresses the second portion of the hydrocarbon gas for storage in one or more gas storage tanks.
