A gas supply system for providing high pressure (HP) gas to a low pressure (LP) gas destination, having a primary HP gas unit and a reserve HP gas unit, which provide regulated lower-pressure gas to a supply manifold, and an LP destination regulator that provides an LP regulated gas supply to a consumption subsystem. A one-way flow valve in fluid communication from the primary HP gas unit to the reserve HP gas unit, ensures that the reserve HP gas unit remains substantially full, even after numerous cycles of depletion and replacement of the primary HP gas unit, during which the HP supply is provided by the reserve HP gas unit, which helps to avoid the risk that the reserve tank pressure and supply might mistakenly, unexpectedly or unintentionally be depleted.

A method of transporting liquid petroleum gas (LPG) comprising coupling reverse thread fittings of a first tank to reverse thread fittings of a second tank, the first tank storing the LPG; and allowing the LPG to flow from the first tank to the second tank through the reverse thread fittings of the first tank and the reverse thread fittings of the second tank.

A cryogenic hydrogen storage system reduces hydrogen loss by providing an initial supply of hydrogen wherein the initial hydrogen has an initial para/ortho hydrogen ratio. The initial hydrogen having an initial para/ortho hydrogen ratio is adjusted to produce final hydrogen having a final para/ortho hydrogen ratio with a greater amount of ortho hydrogen, The cryogenic hydrogen storage system is refueled with the final hydrogen having a final para/ortho hydrogen ratio with a greater amount of ortho hydrogen.

The invention relates to a device for providing pressurized fluid. The device includes a first functional assembly including a pressurized fluid bottle having an opening having attached therein a first tap including an inner fluid circuit including an insulating valve. The device includes a second functional assembly forming a physical entity separate from the first assembly. The second assembly includes a second tap having an inner fluid circuit. The first tap and the second tap include respective coupling members forming a removable rapid connection system. The device includes in the first assembly at least one electronic data storage communication unit that is removably, wirelessly queryable via electromagnetic waves and in that the second assembly includes at least one electronic communication unit for removably, wirelessly reading, via electromagnetic waves, data from the electronic member of the first assembly.

A method of preventing cross-contamination comprising providing a first tank having standard thread fittings, providing a second tank having reverse thread fittings, storing LPG in the second tank, and storing anhydrous ammonia in the first tank.
