Dear All,
I need to transport CO2 (99.9% dry basis) over a distance of 50 km via pipeline. Ambient temperature (not soil temperature) varies from 5 C to 50 C. CO2 critical condition is 73.9 bar & 31.1 C. I need to decide the operating condition of pipeline.
Option 1: Transport CO2 in liquid phase. Lets say at 20 C at 60 bar
Option 2: Transport CO2 in supercritical phase. Lets say at 35 C and 100 bar.
Which of the above option would be better considering wide variation in temperature range?
Whether pipeline should be aboveground or underground?
Thanks
