What is a Cryogenic Liquid Tank?
A cryogenic liquid tank is a specialized storage vessel designed to hold gases in their liquid state at extremely low temperatures, typically below -150°C (-238°F).
Cryogenic liquids are usually gases that have been liquefied at temperatures of -150 °C or lower. Common examples include oxygen, argon, nitrogen, hydrogen, and helium.
These cryogenic vessels are essential for safely storing cryogenic liquids, ensuring they remain in liquid form for efficient use in applications
The tanks are double-walled, with a stainless steel inner vessel holding the liquefied gas and a carbon steel outer vessel acting as an insulating layer.
The space between the inner and outer vessel is filled with a vacuum or a highly efficient insulating material, such as perlite or foam, to minimize heat transfer and prevent the escape of stored gases.
We offer cryogenic tanks for the following liquefied gases:
Liquid nitrogen (LIN)
Liquid argon (LAR)
Liquid oxygen (LOX)
Liquid hydrogen (LH2)
Liquid natural gas (LNG)
Liquid nitrous oxide (LN2O)
Applications of Cryo Tanks
Cryostorage tanks have widespread applications in various industries because they efficiently store large quantities of liquefied gases. Some notable applications include:
Industrial Gases:
The cryogenic vessels store and supply industrial gases like oxygen, nitrogen, and argon, essential in manufacturing processes, metal fabrication, and pharmaceutical production.
Energy and Power:
Liquefied natural gas is stored in LNG tanks to facilitate transportation and use as a cleaner energy source. These tanks enable LNG’s safe storage and transportation, ensuring availability in regions where pipelines are not economically viable.
Aerospace and Defense:
Cryogenic storage tanks play a crucial role in the aerospace industry, where they are utilized to store propellants for rockets and spacecraft. The extremely low temperatures allow higher storage densities, enabling more extended missions and significant payloads.
Medical Applications:
Cryogenic storage tanks are used in medical facilities to store and transport cryopreserved biological materials, including stem cells, tissues, and organs, for research and transplantation purposes. These tanks provide a reliable environment for maintaining the integrity and viability of these critical materials.
The cryogenic nitrogen tank is most prevalent in India, Pakistan, Vietnam, Indonesia, Brazil, Russia, Mexico, the United States, Turkey, and Germany.
A complete range of bulk cryogenic storage tanks and solutions deliver proven reliability, reduced maintenance, and the lowest cost of ownership for the full spectrum of liquefied gases.
Trailers, semi-trailers, swap bodies, liquid tube trailers, and railcars for safe and efficient distribution of non-flammable and flammable liquid gases.
