High Quality China Large LNG Liquefaction Factories - 9 MMSCFD custom LNG Liquefaction Plant – Hengzhong

Nature of LNG

a) Composition

LNG / LCBM is a hydrocarbon mixture with methane as the main component, which contains a small amount of ethane, propane, nitrogen and other components usually existing in natural gas.

Generally speaking, the methane content of LNG / LCBM is higher than 80% and the nitrogen content is lower than 3%.

Although the main component of LNG is methane, the physical and chemical properties of LNG cannot be inferred from pure methane.

The physical and thermodynamic properties of methane and other natural gas components can be found in relevant reference books and thermodynamic calculation manuals.

b) Density

The density of LNG / LCBM depends on its components, usually between 430kg / m3 and 470kg / m3, but in some cases it can be as high as 520kg / m3. Density is also a function of liquid temperature, and its variation gradient is about 1.35kg/m3. ℃.
