The forum needs these parameters in order to advise, and whichever username asks the questions is irrelevant.

Given the anonymity of the forum, users behind the usernames cannot be liable in the event of an unscheduled catastrophic economic event happening to any original post-holder.

starting cond: pressure 8 - 10 barg., 15 degree C, water content around %1 max. in liquid phase LPG, transfer velocity 2 m/sec. volume up to 10 tons/h.

intended cond: less than % 0.01 water content.

if you burn the LPG stored in a pressurised tank the tank will get cool and water will condense on its surface, collect that, when the LPG burns there will be a very high water vapour content, if you can feed this through the right type of exhaust system you can collect the water as it condenses, in between these two points you can do useful work with the heat, such as running an internal combustion engine to drive / power something. Because of the condensor required in the exhaust this will limit you to a stationary application.
