A method for constructing a double-shell-structured cylindrical tank having an inner tank and an outer tank includes: a step of, inside the outer tank, assembling a first structure of the inner tank excluding a lowermost level of the inner tank by alternately and repeatedly performing raising of an inner tank lateral plate using a jack-up unit and attaching of a next inner tank lateral plate below the raised inner tank lateral plate; a step of assembling a second structure serving as the lowermost level of the inner tank on an annular portion provided on a base portion of the outer tank and configured to support the inner tank; and a step of assembling the inner tank by joining the first structure and the second structure.

Hydrogen energy systems for obtaining hydrogen gas from a solid storage medium using controlled photon and phonon sources. Additionally, structures of solid storage mediums, enhancements to interactions in the medium with photons and phonons, and manufacturing methods of the mediums are disclosed. Also disclosed are systems for charging/recharging magnesium with hydrogen to obtain magnesium hydride. Other relatively safe systems assisting storage, transport and use (as in vehicles) of such solid storage mediums are disclosed.

Disclosed is a pump tower disposed inside a liquefied gas storage tank so as to supply or discharge liquefied gas to/from the inside of the liquefied gas storage tank. The pump tower, according to one embodiment of the present invention, comprises: a discharge pipe used for discharging the liquefied gas in the liquefied gas storage tank; an emergency pipe equipped with an emergency pump at the lower end thereof; a charge pipe for supplying the liquefied gas into the liquefied gas storage tank; and a support, which is provided on the bottom of the liquefied gas storage tank, for enabling the vertical displacement of the pump tower and restricting the horizontal movement and rotation thereof. The support comprises: a lower body fixed to a hull side; an upper body fixed to a pump tower side; and a wedge member interposed between the lower body and the upper body.

A cryogenic fluid delivery system includes a main tank system with a main tank adapted to contain a first supply of cryogenic liquid, and reserve tank system with reserve tank adapted to contain a second supply of cryogenic liquid. A pressure building circuit is adapted to delivery vapor to the head space of the main tank to build pressure in the main tank and a fuel delivery line supplies cryogenic fuel from either the main tank or the reserve tank to a use device. The reserve tank stores saturated cryogenic fuel that is delivered to the use device via the fuel delivery line while the cryogenic liquid in the main tank is being saturated. The fluid delivery system automatically switches to delivering cryogenic fuel from the main tank to the use device via the fuel delivery line upon saturation of the cryogenic liquid in the main tank.
