Cryogenic liquid storage tanks have the following significant advantages in the industrial field:
1.Cost-effectiveness and storage efficiency
Cost savings : For large-scale gas demands (such as liquid oxygen and liquid nitrogen), the long-term usage cost of cryogenic storage tanks is lower than the frequent replacement of gas cylinders .
Large storage capacity : The volume of a single tank is much larger than that of a gas cylinder group, making it suitable for centralized storage and reducing space occupation .
Space optimization : Adopting a double-layer vacuum insulation structure, it ensures capacity while reducing floor space .
2.Safety and stability
Specialized safety design : Equipped with overpressure protection, emergency shut-off, low-temperature leakage detection and other devices, in compliance with special equipment specifications .
Low-temperature resistance of materials : The inner tank is made of low-temperature resistant materials such as 304L stainless steel, while the outer tank is carbon steel. The interlayer is vacuum-filled with insulating materials to ensure stable storage of media below -160℃ .
Leak-proof structure : tightly sealed, combined with an intelligent pressure monitoring system, it can provide real-time risk warnings .
3.Technological advancement
Thermal insulation and cold preservation : centered on “controlling evaporation”, it reduces heat intrusion and lowers dielectric loss through vacuum interlayers and cold preservation materials.
Intelligent management : Some new types of storage tanks are equipped with digital controllers that support temperature monitoring, automatic liquid filling and data export .
4.Wide application
Multi-field application : covering industries such as chemical engineering, medical care, and energy, supporting customized volume specifications .
Seismic performance : LNG storage tanks and the like must meet the seismic standard of “neither collapsing nor cracking”, and the site selection should avoid seismic fault zones.
Summary : Cryogenic liquid storage tanks, through efficient storage, safe design and technological innovation, have become the preferred solution for industrial gas management, especially suitable for continuous and large-scale gas usage scenarios.
