Systems and methods for pre-cooling a natural gas stream to a liquefaction plant. A system may include a compressor configured to receive a first natural gas stream at a first pressure and produce a second natural gas stream at a second pressure; an exchanger to cool the second natural gas stream; and an expander to receive the cooled natural gas stream and expand the cooled natural gas stream to produce a chilled natural gas stream. The refrigeration content of the refrigerant is used to liquefy and sub-cool the natural gas stream to produce liquefied natural gas in a cold box or cryogenic exchanger. The refrigerant may be an external gas or an internal refrigerant working fluid expanded and compressed in a twin compander arrangement and compressed by a refrigerant compressor, or an external single mixed refrigerant working fluid compressed by a refrigerant compressor and expanded thru a JT valve.

Methods and configurations for LNG liquefaction

Systems and methods for liquefying a gaseous hydrogen that include a first refrigeration stage and a second refrigeration stage. The first refrigeration stage includes a first heat exchanger configured to flow a first refrigerant to pre-cool the gaseous hydrogen. The second refrigeration stage includes a second heat exchanger configured to flow a second refrigerant to liquefy and sub-cool the hydrogen. The second refrigerant is split into two streams that flow through two compressor-expanders and multiple passes through the second heat exchanger before being recombined to repeat the second refrigeration stage circuit.
