Industrial gases such as oxygen, nitrogen, argon and hydrogen are being produced in gaseous form or as cryogenic liquids. For storage or back-up cryogenic liquid tanks are used.
Example: Back-up systems
Main components:
Flat bottom tanks – characteristics
atmospheric storage, held a few millibar above atmospheric pressure
large quantities single product
inner vessel stainless steel, outer vessel carbon steel
site built tank
emergency flap valves main in/outlets
insulation: perlite interspace with nitrogen purge
