“…One of currently emerging gas storage technologies is natural gas adsorption using porous adsorbents, known as adsorbed natural gas (ANG) (Vasiliev et al, 2000;Bastos-Neto et al, 2005). The technology requires no liquefaction or multistage compression processes.…”

An adsorbed natural gas storage tank was simulated in this work, with the objective being to predict the filling time, the filling capacity and the storage efficiency. A high-capacity HKUST-1 type metal-organic framework was used as adsorbent. The time-dependent phenomenological model of the adsorbed natural gas storage tank was developed considering mass, momentum and energy transfers. The cylindrical tank was 1.09 m in length with a radius of 0.15 m, and was equipped with an inlet hole for gas inflow. The simulation results show that the temperature increase in the tank due to adsorption heat is very significant. This affects the adsorption ability of the bed inside the tank, so the storage efficiency is consequently low. For the inlet gas flowrate of 50 L/min, the storage efficiency is 38% and increases to only 47% at 5 L/min. Corresponding filling capacities for the two flowrates are not very different, i.e. 89 V(STP)/V and 109 V(STP)/V. However, the difference in the filling times is extremely significant, which are 16 min at 50 L/min and 255 min at 5 L/min.

“…The adsorbed natural gas (ANG) technique could be applied to overcome these problems (Bastos-Neto et al, 2007;Mota, 2008;Vasiliev et al, 2000). In this method, high pressure natural gas is adsorbed by activated carbon (adsorbent) (Alcañiz-Monge et al, 2009;Menon & Komarneni, 1998;Quinn & MacDonald, 1992).…”

Adsorbed Natural Gas (ANG) is one of the gas storage methods which specialize in low pressure. This method is more competitive compared to Compressed Natural Gas (CNG). ANG is based on an adsorption process that involves adsorbate and adsorbent. This research is conducted to observe the effects of gas flow-rate on adsorption capacity and the temperature distribution of adsorbent. The adsorbent is a commercially activated carbon, and methane gas is the adsorbate. Methane flow rates are 1 standard liter per minute (SLPM) and 20 SLPM. Temperature in the pressure vessel is maintained at 25°C and the pressure at 3.5 MPa. The result shows that the adsorption capacity of activated carbon is higher at a lower gas flow rate. While a higher gas flow rate causes a higher temperature difference in the adsorption and in desorption process.

“…In this process, activated carbons are the most suitable adsorbents because of their large surface areas and porosities (Prauchner and Rodriguéz-Reinoso 2008). The most important ANG storage systems are filled with active carbons made from cellulose sources (coconut shells, peach pits) and from non-cellulose polyvinylidene chloride (Vasiliev et al 2000). The main limiting factors for natural gas storage by adsorption on activated carbons are related to intra-particle diffusion and thermal effects (Biloé et al 2001;Lozano-Castelló et al 2002b;Dai et al 2006).…”

Activated carbons were produced by chemical activation with H 3 PO 4 (CAQ1) and ZnCl 2 (CAQ2), and used for the methane storage under compression and adsorption. Storage evaluations were performed in a semi-pilot unit where temperature and pressure evolutions were measured (charge pressure: 3.0 MPa). Textural characteristics, absolute densities and specific heats of the activated carbons were measured and related to the performance of the storage system. Mathematical models were developed to predict temperature and pressure evolutions during the gas loading. Our results showed that activated carbon CAQ1 had higher absolute density and lower specific heat than CAQ2. Models that consider the pore-size distribution were the most representative of experimental data for both activated carbons.
