A water pipe cleaning system using high-pressure nitrogen and a water pipe cleaning method using the same are provided. The water pipe cleaning system using high-pressure nitrogen includes: nitrogen pressure vessels containing high-pressure nitrogen therein; a main control unit gathering the high-pressure nitrogen from the nitrogen pressure vessels and controlling pressure of the high-pressure nitrogen; a feed piping device connected to an outlet of the main control unit and connected to an inlet of a pipe to be washed; and a discharge piping device connected to an outlet of the pipe and connected to a nitrogen discharging portion to discharge nitrogen discharged from the pipe to the outside. The main control unit is configured such that control modules are stacked on one another. Each of the control modules is configured such that the nitrogen pressure vessels are connected together in parallel, and has an individual outlet.
METHOD AND SUPPLY EQUIPMENT FOR SUPPLYING FLUORINE GAS-CONTAINING GAS
A method supply equipment for supplying a fluorine gas-containing gas which includes a sealing step of introducing a second fluorine gas-containing gas having a fluorine gas concentration in a range of ±10% of that of a first fluorine gas-containing gas into a portion between a container valve (3) and a pressure regulator (7) of a pipe (4) such that a pressure is lower than the gas pressure in a filled container (2). After the sealing step, a buffer tank (9) is brought into an opened state, and then the first fluorine gas-containing gas is supplied from the filled container (2) to the portion between the container valve (3) and the pressure regulator (7) of the pipe (4). Thereafter, the pressure regulator (7) is brought into an opened state, and then the first fluorine gas-containing gas is supplied to consumption equipment (20) while regulating a pressure by the pressure regulator (7).
Self-sealing pressure vessel systems and methods
A compressed gas storage system that includes a pressure vessel. The pressure vessel includes a first vessel portion and a second vessel portion in fluid communication with the first vessel portion. The pressure vessel includes a third vessel portion in fluid communication with the second vessel portion. The compressed gas storage system includes a first valve positioned between the first vessel portion and the second vessel portion and a second valve positioned between the second vessel portion and the third vessel portion. The first valve allows and impedes fluid flow between the first and the second vessel portions. The second valve allows and impedes fluid flow between the second and the third vessel portions.
DELIVERY SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR THE EFFECTIVE, RELIABLE AND FOOLPROOF DELIVERY OF CONTROLLED AMOUNTS OF A MEDICAL FLUID
A method for performing a medical procedure requiring effective, reliable and foolproof delivery of controlled amounts of a medical grade gas to a patient includes providing a compressed gas cylinder having a weight with medical grade gas sealed therein of at least twelve grams and not greater than fifty grams. The method also includes connecting the compressed gas cylinder to an integrated compressed gas unit including a regulator valve assembly positioned between an outlet port and an inlet port, wherein the regulator valve assembly includes a press button actuator and regulator adjustment dial. A flow control system is secured to the compressed gas unit and the medical grade gas is delivered in precisely controlled amounts by actuating the compressed gas unit and operating the flow control system to deliver the medical grade gas to vasculature of the patient.

REGULATOR ASSEMBLY AND TEST METHOD
Regulator assemblies can be tested using test fluids selected to have a molecular weight about that of a selected fluid to be dispensed from a fluid storage and delivery vessel including the regulator assembly. The test fluid can be a single gas or a mixture. The test fluid can have a molecular weight of between 80% and 110% of the molecular weight of the selected fluid dispensed from the fluid storage and delivery vessel. Regulator assemblies tested in this manner can pass evaluation when they show fewer than two spikes on the initiation of flow of the test gas. These regulator assemblies can be installed into fluid storage and delivery vessels, particularly for storage and delivery of pressurized fluids.

Methods, systems, apparatuses, and devices for facilitating transferring fluids between containers
Disclosed herein is an apparatus for facilitating transferring fluids between containers, in accordance with some embodiments. Accordingly, the apparatus comprises a first container and a regulator. Further, the first container contains a first fluid at a first pressure and transfers the first fluid to a second container. Further, the second container transfers the second fluid to a third container based on the transferring. Further, the second pressure is greater than a third pressure of a third fluid contained in the third container. Further, the regulator is operatably coupled with the first container. Further, the regulator controls a mass flow rate of the first fluid transferred from the first container. Further, the transferring of the first fluid to the second container is based on the controlling. Further, the controlling facilitates maintaining a differential pressure between the second pressure and the third pressure within a differential pressure range.
LIQUEFIED GAS STORAGE TANK AND SHIP INCLUDING SAME
The present disclosure relates to a liquefied gas storage tank and a ship including the same, the liquefied gas storage tank including: a wall configured to form a storage space for accommodating liquefied gas and having a dome formed on its upper surface for inflow and outflow of the liquefied gas; a pump tower having an upper end fixed to the dome and provided with a pipe configured to load and unload liquefied gas and a discharge pump configured to unload liquefied gas; and a lower rotary bearing portion provided on the wall forming a bottom of the storage space and configured to constrain a lower end of the pump tower.
Gas supply system
The gas supply system of this invention is furnished with a cylinder apparatus having a pneumatic valve that supplies process gas to a process chamber, and a solenoid valve that opens or closes said pneumatic valve by supplying or stopping the flow of valve actuating gas to said pneumatic valve; and a gas supply control apparatus that controls the actuation of the solenoid valve. In addition, said gas supply control apparatus comprises a main controller that controls the actuation of said solenoid valve during normal operation, and a sub-controller that senses an abnormal state of said main controller and if an abnormality is sensed, controls the actuation of said solenoid valve instead of said main controller.
