Cryogenic tanks are ideal for storing large quantities of gases in liquid form, including Liquid Oxygen, Liquid Nitrogen, Argon, CO2, LNG, LPG, and Liquid Hydrogen.
These industrial Cryogenic storage tanks offer advantages in internal distribution, loading efficiency, and safety.
Cryogenic tanks enable the installation of a centralized network for optimal distribution of cryogenic gases. Unlike systems like cylinders, these tanks eliminate gas return to the plant, resulting in resource savings.
Gases are loaded into cryogenic tanks using vaporizers, allowing liquid gas to flow directly from the production plant to the user. This ensures stability, safety, and avoids sudden movements.
Cryogenic tanks maintain higher gas purity due to their hermetically sealed design, preventing any contamination from external agents.
With hermetically sealed, stable tanks, risks are minimized, and cylinder transfers within facilities are eliminated, reducing unnecessary hazards.
Cryogenic tanks offer remarkable versatility, enabling the establishment of centralized networks for the efficient distribution of various cryogenic gases. A key advantage of these tanks is the elimination of gas return to the production plant, unlike other systems such as cylinders. This feature leads to significant resource savings.
Cryogenic tanks are loaded using vaporizers, ensuring a direct transfer of liquid gas from the production facility to the end user. This method minimizes abrupt movements, enhancing stability and safety throughout the process.
Cryogenic tanks preserve the gas at a higher purity level compared to other storage systems. The hermetically sealed design prevents any contamination by external agents, maintaining the integrity of the stored gas.
Safety risks are significantly reduced as the gas remains securely isolated in stable, hermetically sealed tanks without exposure to external conditions. This setup eliminates the need for cylinder transfers within the facility, minimizing potential hazards.
A cryogenic liquid tank consists of two primary components:
1. Inner Vessel: Made of stainless steel, this vessel is engineered to withstand extremely low temperatures.
2. Outer Vessel: Constructed from carbon steel, this vessel provides the necessary structural support.
The two vessels are separated by an insulating layer, which is made from a combination of insulating materials to minimize heat transfer.
In addition to the vessels and insulation, cryogenic tanks are equipped with a crucial pressure regulation system. This system ensures that the tank maintains a constant pressure, tailored to meet the user's specific needs.
Cryogenic gas storage tanks are designed with strict safety protocols to prevent accidents such as leaks, material damage, and, most importantly, personal injury. Some key safety measures include:
1. Double-Walled Construction: Cryogenic tanks feature an inner vessel and an outer vessel, with the outer vessel acting as a protective encasing. The two vessels are separated by an intermediate chamber that serves as a thermal insulating barrier, ensuring the cryogenic fluids remain at the correct temperature.
2. Pressure Relief Systems: These tanks are equipped with relief valves and rupture or bursting discs. These components automatically release gas in the event of an unexpected pressure increase, maintaining the pressure at safe levels.
3. Safe Transport: Cryogenic liquids are also safely transported in double-walled tankers, which are vacuum-insulated with an inter-chamber to ensure temperature stability and safety during transit.
Cryogenic tanks come in various types, each designed specifically to accommodate the cryogenic liquid it stores and to suit its intended location, including factors like size, placement, and terrain.
The shape and design of cryogenic tanks vary depending on the gas they store, including:
- LIN (Liquid Nitrogen)
- LOX (Liquid Oxygen)
- LAR (Liquid Argon)
- CO2 (Carbon Dioxide)
- LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas)
- LHe (Liquid Helium)
- LH2 (Liquid Hydrogen)
- LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas)
- Liquid Ethylene
