  • Adsorbed natural gas storage facility
    Patent number: 10302254
    Abstract: A natural gas storage facility for reducing effects of diurnal demand on a natural gas source is disclosed. The natural gas storage facility includes a guard bed system that has a heavy natural gas component storage capacity and that is operable to remove impurities from introduced natural gas, to selectively separate the introduced natural gas into a heavy natural gas component and a light natural gas component, to retain the heavy natural gas component and to release the heavy natural gas component and an adsorption bed system that fluidly couples to the guard bed system, that has a light natural gas component storage capacity, that contains a light natural gas adsorbent that is a microporous material, and that is operable to retain the light natural gas component using the light natural gas adsorbent and to release the light natural gas component from the light natural gas adsorbent.
    Type: Grant

  • Adsorbed natural gas storage facility
    Patent number: 9562649
    Abstract: A method of using the natural gas storage facility to reduce the effect of diurnal demand on a natural gas source includes introducing natural gas into the natural gas storage facility, separating the natural gas into a heavy natural gas component and a light natural gas component, and retaining the components during a non-peak period of demand. The natural gas storage facility includes a guard bed system and an adsorption bed system. The method also includes releasing the heavy and light natural gas components, mixing them into a released natural gas component product and introducing it to the natural gas source during a peak period of demand.
