ABSTRACT:
The improved method produces electricity by capturing energy normally wasted when natural gas is reduced in pressure. The improved device includes a heat addition and thermal energy storage system that includes an intermittent heat pump for use at pre-determined periods of time to add heat to an energy storage device. The energy storage device and an optional supplemental heater are used to maintain a satisfactory gas temperature downwstream of the process.
