Turboexpander MTG
Natural Gas Expansion Machine for Transforming the Energy Potential of Natural Gas Flow into Electrical Energy.
| Main Features | High energetic efficiency of the transformation of thermal energy – up to 95 % |
|---|---|
| Type of machine: radial turbine with directlycoupled synchronous generator | |
| Adjustable vane (possible control of pressure and volume) | |
| Rotor with magnetic bearing, almost frictionless,with low-wear and low maintenance construction | |
| No additional lubricant circuits and seal-gas systems necessary | |
| Extremely smooth operation – no oscillations, special foundation or bedding required | |
| High speeds facilitate high performance, even at small dimensions | |
| Closed, encapsulated system can be used in Zone 2 hazard areas (Ex-RL) | |
| Innovative frequency converter technology provides 400 V/50 Hz AC just like mains | |
| Adaptation to gas procurement conditions by means of parallel and serial connection of MTG machines | |
| Can be used in parallel operation with gas pressure regulating stations | |
| Suitable for remote control | |
| PLC - based control (Type Siemens S7), easy implementation with automation concepts | |
| Applicable for gases according to DVGW working instructions G 260 and neutral, nonaggressive gases. Other gases upon enquiry. |
Scope of Delivery and Performance
RMG by Honeywell offers turnkey delivery of gas expansion plants from a single source:
- Engineering: Design of equipment, determination of input (heat) and output (electrical energy), efficiency analysis
- Gas expansion machines MTG 160 and 550
- Electro-technical facilities: control system, frequency converter technology, safety engineering
- Solutions for automation
- Plant construction: planning complete tubing/equipment for a ready-to-operation station
- Accommodation in containers or concrete
building - Heat concepts: planning and realisation of concepts for the use of unused heat energy in order to include it in the expansion process – supply of CHP and boilers to provide heat
- Integration: on either the gas or heat side
- Start-ups
- Training
- Maintenance of expansion plants
In order to determine the feasibility of a gas expansion machine of the MTG type and the yield of electrical energy that may be expected, it is necessary to know the exact gas procurement data.
