Hydrogen transport
Thread Content
Our plant’s hydrogenation unit requires a hydrogen delivery rate of 4500 Nm3/h; the pressure at the source of hydrogen is 0.3 Mpa (gauge pressure), while the reaction pressure in the hydrogenation unit is 15.0 Mpa. The delivery distance is 1 kilometer. Please assist us in selecting the appropriate materials, pipe diameter, wall thickness, flow velocity, as well as determining which equipment is needed. Calculate roughly how much the investment in pipeline transportation is.
I’m not very familiar with the selection of materials and wall thickness； Using multi-stage compression by a compressor will do. If conveying first and then pressurizing: pipe diameter DN200, linear velocity 11.6 m/s ； If pressure is applied first and then transportation takes place: pipe diameter DN150, linear speed 5.5 m/s ； This post was last edited by xlwhide on 2009-4-3 00:44]
