Study on the difference of dispersion behavior between hydrogen and methane in utility tunnel

Compared to liquid/gas hydrogen tank, the pipeline is an economical way for hydrogen transportation. With the quick development of utility tunnel in China, hydrogen pipeline enters the gas compartment can be expected soon. However, all the safety requirements of the gas compartment in the current standards are designed for natural gas, and the applicability for hydrogen is unknown. Therefore, a series of studies were started to investigate the safety of hydrogen in utility tunnel. In this work, a real utility tunnel locates at Shanghai was selected as the physical object. A 3D numerical model was built and successfully validated by a scaled tunnel test. The model has the maximum deviation of +9.5%. After that, a comparatively study of the dispersion behavior of CH₄ and H₂ was conducted. The assumed scenario was a 20 mm small-hole leaks with gauge pressure of 1.0 MPa in the middle of the tunnel. Numerical results shown that, H₂ has a larger dispersion velocity and higher concentration, and is more dangerous compared to CH₄. The current emergency ventilation strategy of air change rate of 12 times/h is not effective enough to dilute the H₂ flammable cloud. The alarm time of the testing points shown strong linear law. There was a sharp variation in the range of 20%–100% LFL (Lower Flammable Limit), so the alarm strategy in the tunnel standards is too ideal for both CH₄ and H₂. The numerical results in the present study could provide a guidance for the design and safety management of the hydrogen tunnel.     

Performance and Commercial Application of the Promoter LCC-A for Maximization of Propylene Yield

1 Introduction Propylene as an important feedstock for organic chemicals is mainly originated from steam cracking and catalytic cracking processes. During the FCC process the propylene content varies with the FCC catalyst and process technology adopted, resulting in significant difference in propylene concentration in the cracked product——LPG. The conventional FCC pro- cess generally gives a propylene yield of around 4%, while the FCC process with maximization of propylene yield can in…     

A Method to Measure Emissions from Dryers with Diffuse Leakages, Using Evaporated Water as a Tracer

This paper describes a novel method to measure emission from dryers. The method resolves the known difficulties caused by diffuse emissions, and also solves the problems associated with high moisture content of the drying medium. The basic idea is to use water vapor to determine the exhaust flow, while a dry ice trap is used both to preconcentrate emitted VOCs and to determine the moisture content of the drying medium.
