What is a Cryogenic LNG Vehicle Cylinder ?

A Cryogenic LNG Vehicle Cylinder  or cryogenic tank is a tank that is used to store material at very low temperatures.

The term “cryotank” refers to storage of super-cold fuels, such as liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen. Cryotanks and cryogenics can be seen in many sci-fi movies, but they are still currently undeveloped. All that needs to be done is for a human to be loaded into the tank and then they can be frozen until a time comes when any diseases they have can be cured and they can live an even longer life. This could also be used in space travel and just preserving human life in general. The problem with this is when the human body is frozen, ice crystals form in the cells. The ice crystals then continue to expand rupturing the cell wall and destroying the integrity of the cell, or killing it.

This means in order for humans to undergo the cryogenic process a way to significantly raise the levels of glucose produced in the human body is needed.

LNG Vehicle Cylinder  are used to store natural gases such as oxygen, argon, nitrogen, helium, hydrogen and other materials. Tanks can store the materials at the correct temperature and pressure for transportation.

How are cryogenic liquids stored?

Cryogens should be stored in containers specifically designed to house them. The containers should be insulated and double walled. Store all cryogenic liquid containers upright in well- ventilated areas. Handle them carefully, and avoid dropping, rolling or tipping them on their sides.

How do cryogenic storage tanks work?

The space between the inner and outer vessel, containing several inches of insulating material maintained in a vacuum. The vacuum and insulating material help to reduce heat transfer and thereby reduce the boil-off of the liquid oxygen, liquid nitrogen or liquid argon stored within the vessel.

What are cryogenic storage tanks?

Cryogenic storage tanks are defined as dedicated pressure vessels that store liquid oxygen, nitrogen, argon, carbon dioxide, etc. When it comes to the storage of other liquefied gases at slightly higher temperatures, such as liquefied natural gas (LNG), carbon dioxide, and nitrous oxide, they are also consummate performers.

These vacuum insulation storage tanks be seen as a soft option open to LNG users in varied sectors. They require precise assembly jobs of inner tanks and matching outer tanks, made of austenitic stainless steel and to-be-specified material respectively, packed with perlite or aluminum foil, thermal insulation cotton.

Applications in industry

In light of their impressive performance of storing liquefied industrial gases, such as liquid oxygen, nitrogen, argon, and carbon dioxide, cryogenic liquid storage tanks are commonly available in steel, chemicals, metallurgy, medicine, food, and power industry. For instance, the equipment meet the needs of storing liquid oxygen for steel argon welding, liquid nitrogen or argon for arc welding (cutting), etc.

What Is A Cryogenic Liquid Cylinder?

Cryogenic Liquid Cylinders are specialized containers, which are double walled, with a vacuum and other multi-layered insulation in between the walls (similar in concept to an insulated travel coffee mug). These containers are made for efficient and safe transportation and storage of liquid gases that are at very low temperatures.

Which Are The Most Common Liquids Stored In These Containers?

Liquid Nitrogen

Liquid Argon  

Carbon Dioxide

Liquid Oxygen       

Liquid Helium

Why Use Cryogenic Liquid Cylinders?

There are 2 main benefits that come from using vacuum insulated cylinders. The first is that they can store a large volume of gas in liquid state at a lower pressure in comparison to compressed gas cylinders. Secondly, these containers are designed to provide portability in a safe, reliable and easy to manage format.

Safety Information & Protocols

All Cryogenic Liquid Containers will endure some heat transfer from the environment due to temperature differences between the liquid and its surroundings. This will cause some vaporization of the liquid contents in to the gaseous state, which will collect in the space above the liquid. Once a pre-determined cylinder pressure is reached, there will be a periodical release of gas through a relief valve. This vaporization is normal and part of the container  s safety operation. Store cylinders only in well ventilated areas.

Should there be an accidental release of either CO2, nitrogen, argon or helium in a confined space, the immediate area could quickly become oxygen-deficient and create a very dangerous scenario for anyone nearby. It is imperative that these containers are stored in very well-ventilated areas, in order to prevent the creation of an oxygen-deficient space. For permanent or semi-permanent usage locations, it is recommended to install a proper venting solution to an exterior outlet. Feel free to ask our expert for more information and guidance.

Since cryogenic liquids are extremely low in temperature (approximately -78.5 degrees C to -269 degrees C), they can cause rapid freezing of skin upon contact. It is recommended that when operating and handling these containers, that the user wear proper PPE to protect exposed skin.

On the other hand, if oxygen is released accidentally, this can create a fire hazard as the space will become oxygen-enriched and materials may be at an increased risk for easy ignition. Oxygen must be separated from flammables and combustibles by at least 20 feet or a half-hour fire wall. Post   No Smoking   and   No Open Flames   signs. Because of the large expansion ratio of liquid-to-gas, it is very important to provide adequate ventilation in areas where liquid oxygen is in use.

Transporting Liquid Cylinders

When transporting these LNG Storage Tanks, the transporter should use mechanical equipment, particularly if the container does not already have wheels. It is also important that these cylinders are also in an upright position and stored in a well-ventilated area.

When containers have wheels, it is important that they are pushed in order to reduce the risk of the cylinder tipping over.

When transporting in an elevator, use a freight elevator if possible. If a freight elevator is not available, ensure that no other passengers are able to use the elevator while the container is in it.
