Automatic SNG Blenders

Since industries and utilities push for greater cost-efficiency, flexibility, and supply security in their gas infrastructure, SNG (Synthetic Natural Gas) systems are winning essential recognition. Together with the key components of these systems, the automatic SNG blender system is distinguished as an indispensable solution for steady and reliable gas mixing. It allows for a seamless conversion from natural gas to an LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas)-based alternative, ensuring consistent performance in cases of natural gas disruptions or shortages.

The I-Maximum automatic SNG blenders of the MGA line have been developed for autonomous and continuous operation and fully conform to industrial standards for gas mixing and safety. All our SNG blending systems are excellent for peak shaving scenarios and facilities located in territories with insufficient access to natural gas networks.

What Is an SNG Blender?

An SNG blender (also referred to as an SNG mixer) is an automatic or semi-automatic system that mixes air with LPG to generate a synthetic substitute that copies the combustion characteristics of natural gas. The consequent gas mixture, usually known as SNG or synthetic natural gas, can be injected into the current pipeline network or supplied directly to end customers.

This blending procedure requires ultimate precision since improper mixing can bring about poor combustion, damage to applications, or safety risks. Therefore, the I-Maximum blenders include high-accuracy control systems that supervise and adjust the LPG-air ratio in the real-time mode, on consideration of flow, pressure, and calorific value measurements.

The systems are completely compatible with different types of LPG, including propane, butane, or a mix of both. Moreover, they can be adjusted to meet specific gas quality requirements depending on the country or region.

Concept Definition

I-Maximum automatic SNG blenders of the MGA series have been developed for durable performance and convenient deployment. All of them have been preassembled in compact and modular skids that can be easily installed in containerized systems or deployed directly on-site. The technical characteristics of our SNG blending systems comprise the following:

• High-precision blending modules employ flow regulators, proportional valves, and control sensors.

• Completely automated performance based on PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) and remote supervision capabilities.

• Embedded safety interlocks and emergency shutdown systems.

• Wide capacity range convenient for small boilers and huge utility-scale installations.

• Low maintenance requirements based on the use of corrosion-resistant materials and self-cleaning components.

In addition, all SNG mixers are compatible with standard gas analyzers and flow meters. Moreover, they can be incorporated into existing SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) systems for centralized monitoring. The usual blending accuracy performed by our equipment ranges within ± 1% of the target gas composition. It ensures conformity with combustion parameters for turbines, burners, and the rest of gas-powered applications.

Cases of Application

Automatic SNG blenders are installed in a wide range of applications where flexibility and reliability in fuel delivery are paramount. Whether for emergency substitution or constant SNG supply in off-grid areas, these systems enable continuous performance across various sectors. The usual employment of automatic SNG blenders includes different industrial processes, electric power generating facilities, district heating networks, temporary or mobile installations, and municipal utilities.

By installing an SNG blender, customers can guarantee a resilient energy infrastructure that decreases dependence on a sole fuel source and improves energy security.

System Components and Customization

All our automatic SNG blending systems are subject to configuration based on customer demands. Such a configuration depends upon a few aspects that include required capacity, available LPG delivery technique (liquid or vapor phase), and the expected consumption rate of the synthetic gas. The usual components of an SNG blender skid comprise the following:

• LPG inlet and preheating system (if vapor phase is required).

• Air compressor or connection to compressed air network.

• High-precision gas metering elements.

• Air-LPG mixing chamber.

• Flow and pressure sensors.

• PLC control cabinet with HMI (human-machine interface).

• Safety valves, filters, and shut-off mechanisms.

Each SNG MGA mixer can be tailored with optional features that include dual-mode operation (automatic/manual), integration with a chromatograph, and data logging systems. In addition, we provide containerized solutions that house the entire SNG generation module in weather-resistant enclosures for easy deployment and low on-site work.

Compliance, Safety, and Reliability

Safety is overwhelmingly important when it comes to gas blending systems, especially when dealing with flammable PLG and pressurized air. All I-Maximum SNG blenders of the MGA series have been engineered in compliance with international requirements that include PED (Pressure Equipment Directive), ATEX (ATmospheres EXplosibles), and ISO (International Standards Organization) guidelines. Pressure control, leak detection, and automatic shutdown features are standard in all MGA gas mixing models.

Moreover, our company offers full support for start-up and commissioning, personnel training, and preventive inspection scheduling. Our engineering experts support customers to ensure proper deployment and compliance with local regulations and environmental requirements.
