The Cryogenic Liquid Storage Tank is engineered to store LNG and other cryogenic liquids (e.g., liquid nitrogen, oxygen, argon) at -196°C under low pressure (0.2–1.5 bar). Constructed with double-wall vacuum-insulated steel, these tanks minimize boil-off rate (BOR)—the natural evaporation of stored liquids—to ≤0.05% per day, ensuring long-term storage reliability and reducing product loss .
Horizontal Tanks: Ideal for small to medium capacities (10–50 m³), with a low profile that simplifies transportation (road or rail) and installation in limited-space areas like factory yards.
Vertical Tanks: Larger capacities (50–200 m³) with optimized floor space (circular footprint), common in LNG terminals and industrial facilities where high-volume storage is required.
Superior Insulation
Vacuum-insulated design with perlite powder (for vertical tanks) or multilayer insulation (MLI) (for horizontal tanks) reduces heat ingress by 99%, minimizing BOR. MLI consists of 30–50 layers of aluminum foil and glass fiber, with a total thickness of 50–100 mm.
Stainless steel 304/316L inner shell (with a wall thickness of 6–12 mm) resists corrosion from cryogenic liquids, while the outer shell (carbon steel, 8–15 mm thick) provides structural strength.
Advanced Safety Systems
Dual-pressure relief valves (set at 1.2–1.5 times operating pressure) and magnetic level indicators (accuracy ±10 mm) provide real-time monitoring of tank conditions.
Fire-resistant outer shell (e.g., carbon steel with intumescent fireproof coating, 1–2 mm thick) meets API 620 (large storage tanks) and EN 14620 (cryogenic vessels) standards, withstanding 2-hour fire exposure.
Easy Integration
Equipped with multi-port connections (DN25 to DN100) for filling (top or bottom inlet), vaporization (boil-off gas outlet), and pressure control (pneumatic valves), enabling seamless integration with vaporization skids and pipeline networks.
LNG Terminals: Long-term storage for import/export operations, with capacities up to 200 m³ supporting daily offloading from LNG carriers.
Industrial Gas Supply: Supports bulk storage for manufacturing (e.g., steel mills using oxygen), healthcare (liquid nitrogen for cryopreservation), and research facilities (liquid helium for superconductors).
Peak Shaving: Stores excess LNG during low-demand periods (e.g., summer) for vaporization during high-demand periods (e.g., winter), reducing reliance on pipeline gas during peak hours.
Q: How is tank capacity determined?
A: Capacity depends on daily consumption (e.g., 5,000 Nm³/day), storage duration (typically 5–30 days), and safety margins (10–15% of total capacity). A 50 m³ tank (which holds ~25 tons of LNG) can supply ~10,000 Nm³/day for 5–7 days, considering BOR losses.
Q: What maintenance is required?
A: Regular checks include vacuum level testing (every 2 years, ensuring vacuum pressure ≤1 Pa), insulation integrity inspections (via thermal imaging to detect heat leaks), and valve calibration (annually) to maintain pressure control accuracy.
Q: Can tanks be buried or above ground?
A: Both options are available. Buried tanks require additional corrosion protection (e.g., cathodic protection systems) and leak detection grids, while above-ground tanks offer easier access for maintenance and faster installation (no excavation needed).
