Patent number: 12590759Abstract: Embodiments provide a method for preventing shutdowns in LNG facilities by removing heavy hydrocarbons from the inlet gas supply. According to an embodiment, there is provided an LNG facility treating pipeline quality natural gas that is contaminated with lubrication oil and low concentrations of heavy hydrocarbons. Due to contamination, the behavior of the pipeline quality natural gas is not properly predicted by thermodynamic modeling. In an embodiment, heavy hydrocarbons are removed by a drain system in a heat exchanger. In an embodiment, heavy hydrocarbons are removed by a treatment bed.Type: GrantFiled: September 21, 2023Date of Patent: March 31, 2026Assignee: CHENIERE ENERGY, INC.Inventors: Hamish David William Horne, Scott Oliver, Timothy King Jordan, Matthew Peter Henderson

Patent number: 11649177Abstract: Provided are methods of removing perchlorate from water. The methods include contacting water suspected of containing perchlorate with a cationic material. The cationic material includes one or more cationic metal atoms connected by an atom or molecule into an extended structure, and a charge balancing anion. The contacting removes perchlorate (e.g., selectively), if present, from the water. Water treatment vessels, systems and facilities that find use in practicing the methods of the present disclosure are also provided.Type: GrantFiled: October 22, 2021Date of Patent: May 16, 2023Assignee: The Regents of the University of CaliforniaInventors: Scott Oliver, Ian Colinas
