1 Introduction to the Safe Design of LNG, CNG and Hydrogen Refueling Stations Presentation to SFPE Northern California and Nevada Chapter March 16, 2007 by Jack Woycheese, PE, FSFPE

2 Background Existing LNG Import Terminals 5 in North America, 17 new plants approved, 25 proposed and submitted for approval, 17 more in planning Existing LNG/CNG Refueling Facilities Garden Grove, Anaheim, Irvine, Santa Monica Proposed LNG offloading in Long Beach 5 5 Hydrogen plants in SoCal

3 Alternative Fuels Demand driven by environmental goals Methanol Electrical (Batteries) Natural Gas CNG LNG Hydrogen

4 CRYOGENIC CHARACTERISTICS Cryogenic temperatures are defined as between -150ºF F and -460ºF F (absolute zero). At atmospheric pressure LNG boils at -259ºF. Hydrogen boils at -430ºF

5 FIRE HAZARD PROFILE - LNG Lower Explosion limit (% by vol.): 5.0 Upper explosion limit (% by vol.): 15.4 Auto ignition temperature: 537ºC Flammability classification Flammable Sensitivity to static discharge Ignitable by static electricity. Escaping gas may self ignite

6 FIRE HAZARD PROFILE- HYDROGEN Lower Explosion limit (% by vol.): 4.0 Upper explosion limit (% by vol.): Auto ignition temperature: 575ºC Flammability classification Flammable Sensitivity to static discharge Ignitable by static electricity. Escaping gas may self ignite because of friction.

7 Basic Design of CNG Station Dryer Compressor Natural Gas Inlet 35 or 160 psi Supply Compression skids Outlet Filter Buffer Priority/ Sequential Panel Storage Vessels FUEL DEPOT CNG FUELING Dispenser Card Reader CNG FUELING Dispensers CNG FUELING ISLAND-

8 Basic Design of L/CNG Station Vacuum-jacketed LNG storage tank LNG tank truck delivery fill port Sump-mounted centrifugal inducer pumps CNG dispensers on bus refueling islands High-pressure gas buffer storage vessel Forced-draft ambient-air vaporizer

9 LNG/CNG LNG Release Behavior (Cont d) As LNG vaporizes, water in air Condenses Forms visible cloud Initial release heavy, as it warms becomes light like CNG at -30 F

10 Methane Gas Supplies CNG LNG/CNG Pipeline to com- pressor to CNG storage Truck as CNG to CNG storage LNG Made on site Shipped in trucks to LNG storage

11 LNG/CNG Methane Gas Supplies (Cont d) L/CNG LNG/pump/vaporizer/ CNG storage LNG/vaporizer/ compressor/storage

12 Hazards of Natural Gas Fuel accumulation LNG/CNG Near ceiling In presence of potential ignition sources Fast releases Possible Considered improbable

13 Applicable Standards NFPA 52, 2006 edition NFPA edition NFPA 57 (Combined into NFPA 52) NFPA 59A, 2006 edition NFPA 88 Building Code Fire Code Pressure-vessel Code

14 Applicable Standards California Title 8: Pressure Vessel Code (Cont d) Incorporates NFPA 52/57/59A Approved in March, 2000 Methane Detection Addressed engineering approval of LNG Refueling

15 Spacing Site Considerations Site Equipment Drainage Away from buildings/equipment LNG vaporization rate LNG spill rate Environmental contamination Pressure Relief Discharge

16 Above-ground Tank, L/CNG Station Vertical tank Facilities Tank, pumps, vaporizer, containment, buffer Fueling island dispensers
