Equipment selection and key assumptions and key sizing parameters applied for cost estimation.

Equipment Basis Key sizing parameter
Pumps Centrifugal API-610 BB3/BB5 pump type. Assumed isentropic efficiency adding 3% for friction losses and estimated losses in e-motor. Pump power (kW)
Heat exchangers in condensing service Air Cooled Heat Exchanger (refrigerant condenser) or Shell & Tube with U = 1000 W/m2 K. Heat transfer surface area (m2) from LMTD, U-value and heat duty (kW)
Compressor Centrifugal type with assumed isentropic efficiency adding 3% for friction losses and estimated losses in e-motor. Compressor duty (kW)
Heat exchangers in gas service Air Cooled Heat Exchanger or Shell & Tube with U = 500 W/m2 K. Heat transfer surface area (m2) from MTD/LMTD, U-value and heat duty (kW)
Compressor suction scrubber Dimensioning using GPSA method [33]. The diameter is estimated from a K-value of 0.1 m/s. Vessel wall thickness is estimated using ASME BPVC [34] and selected material properties. Vessel weight is estimated on shell and ends adding 30% for supports and nozzles. Gas volumetric flow, pressure and gas density
