Compressed natural gas refueling system |
(57) The present invention is referred to a transportable compressed natural gas supply
system. This system is an integral solution for supplying compressed natural gas (CNG)
to remote places that can not have access to the gas pipelines. It consists of storage
modules (3), loading and unloading platform (4-32), a transport vehicle and a sequence
of use of said modules (3). The modules (3) are formed by a protection cage with fibreglass
lids having cylinders inside for the compressed natural gas. These cylinders are interconnected
with pipes, and they also have lock, relief, excess and pressure gauge valves. Besides,
these cylinders are separated from each other by rubber separators. The system is
formed by loading and unloading platforms of the modules (3), a transport vehicle
to help in replacing them and a sequence of use.
