41 Pipeline arrangement for utilizing a gas comprising biomethane US14974620 2015-12-18 US09508085B2 2016-11-29 Patrick J. Foody
Embodiments of the invention provide a process in which a gas comprising biomethane having a heating value of less than about 925 BTU/cubic foot is introduced to a pipeline system that is connected to at least one source of natural gas having a heating value of at least about 950 BTU/cubic foot. The gas comprising biomethane combines with natural gas in the pipeline system to produce a mixed gas having a heating value below about 925 BTU/cubic foot. An amount of natural gas at least equal to the amount of gas comprising biomethane is withdrawn from the pipeline system for use as a transportation fuel, a fuel intermediate or as a feedstock for producing a fuel. The process can enable fuel credit generation and/or reductions in life cycle greenhouse gas emissions.

The present invention pertains generally to a system and method for providing fuel having a desired calorie content to a combustion engine over a range of operating levels. The system mixes a first fuel from a first fuel supply pipe with a second fuel from a second fuel supply pipe at a mixing point to create a mixed fuel having a first calorie content. A control valve is located in the second fuel supply pipe upstream of the mixing point. A process system downstream of the mixing point processes the mixed fuel to create a processed mixed fuel having a second calorie content. A first control signal is reflective of the first calorie content of the mixed fuel. A second control signal is reflective of the second calorie content of the processed mixed fuel. A third control signal is reflective of the operating level of the combustion engine. A controller connected to the control valve operates the control valve based on the first, second, and third control signals.
