To explain how a gas can be changed into a liquid and a liquid into a gas while maintaining a single phase, we can break down the process into several steps:Step 1: Understanding Phases - Definition of Phases:
The relatively high purity oxygen is reacted with light hydrocarbons and steam in a partial oxidation reactor in order to produce synthesis gas. The synthesis gas is thereafter converted to a hydrocarbon liquid or liquids via a Fischer Tropsch or related reaction.Agee, Kenneth L...
Gas-to-Liquid Technology In subject area: Engineering GTL technology is a chemical process that converts methane gas into transportation fuels, such as gasoline or diesel fuels (Fleisch, 2014).

Figures exclude natural gas converted to liquid fuels. Derivatives of natural gas and coal consumed in gas-to-liquids transformation are included. According to the source, this data represents standard cubic meters (measured at 15°C and 1,013 mbar) where possible. Since the figures were derive...
A process for converting a hydrocarbon gas (e.g. natural gas) to syngas which, in turn, is converted into a liquid hydrocarbon product wherein a substantial amount of the heat generated in the process is recovered for use in generating s... JR Wolflick,GL Beer,RL Payne - US 被引量:...
Natural gas at −161°C transforms into liquid. This is done for easy storage and transportation because it reduces the volume occupied by gas by a factor of600. LNG is transported in specially built ships withcryogenic tanks. It is received at LNG receiving terminals and is regassified to...
the liquid gas is kept in well-insulated tanks either on land or at sea in specially designed ships (seeFig. 2.3). Thirdly, it is converted back into a gas from a liquid in a re-gasification plant at or close to the delivery port, after which it can be delivered into the localgas ...
Projects which have been developed to exploit such feeds typically have converted the gas into one of the following: (1) liquefied natural gas (LNG)--the process plants for LNG production are expensive, need to be very large to be economically viable, have costly dedicated shipping requirements...
Liquefied natural gas (LNG) is natural gas that has been converted to a liquid form for the ease and safety of natural gas transport. Natural gas is cooled to approximately -260 F, creating a clear, colorless, and non-toxic liquid that can be transported from areas with a large supply of...
Gas resources which are too far from the main markets for transport by pipeline can be processed or converted into liquids to make such transport economically viable. Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG), liquid transportation fuels and methanol are then the options to be considered. LNG and methanol are...
