Abstract

Devices, systems, and methods for liquefied natural gas production facilities are disclosed herein. A liquefied natural gas (LNG) production facility includes a liquefaction unit and a gas turbine. The liquefaction unit condenses natural gas vapor into liquefied natural gas. The LNG production facility further includes at least one post-combustion capture unit that captures a carbon dioxide (CO2)-rich stream from a flue gas stream of the gas turbine. The LNG production facility also includes a sequestration compression unit that compresses at least one CO2-rich stream from the at least one post-combustion capture unit.
