| dc.description.abstract | Due to the increasing demand for natural gas in the world today, transportation of
natural gas from different parts of the world has become a necessity. Liquefying the natural
gas provides a safer and cheaper alternative for transportation and also increases its storage
capabilities. The liquefaction process requires the natural gas to be cooled using various
methods of cryogenic processes and also be depressurized to atmospheric conditions for
easier and safer storage. This paper analyzes MR-X process for the liquefaction of natural
gas based on the energetic analysis. The MR-X process that is analyzed in this work is
assumed to be in Qatar. The research has some problems need to be considered, such as
limitation in the use of DWSIM software and paid software such as ASPEN Plus is quite
expensive. The objective also must be considered, such as the data from software,
Coefficient of Performance value, and similarity in value of enthalpy and entropy. For the
results and analysis, the value on power required, heat rates, enthalpy, entropy and COP
must be calculated in order to analyze the MR-X process. As a conclusion, all the objective
must be achieved, in order to decide whether the research is success or vice versa. | en_US |
