Apparatus, methods and technologies are described for utilizing a liquid organic hydrogen carrier (LOHC) fueling station to supply fresh or hydrogen laden LOHC and to recover spent or hydrogen depleted LOHC liquid fuels from mobile vehicles and tanker trucks to support the use of LOHC as carbon-neutral hydrogen fuels to power vehicles, to generate and store electricity, to generate and capture hydrogen, and to replace the use of conventional hydrocarbon fuels while maintaining an overall carbon-neutral balance with respect to the environment. The disclosure includes apparatus, methods and technologies to resupply a modular LOHC fueling station, to store, dispense and recover LOHC fuels, and to transfer the LOHC liquid fuels while balancing displaced vapors to maintain an overall carbon-neutral environmental footprint.

Provided is a manufacturing method for manufacturing a high-pressure tank by infiltrating resin into a fiber layer of a preform in which the fiber layer is formed on an outer surface a liner. The manufacturing method includes: a first supply step of supplying resin to the fiber layer of the preform; and a second supply step of, after the first supply step, supplying, to the fiber layer, resin to which spherical particles are added.

The present invention relates to a remote propane-monitoring device primarily comprised of a body with a front surface further comprised of a display and at least one button, a retaining clip and a mobile application. In the preferred embodiment, the body is generally rectangular and is made from a rigid, water-resistant/water-proof, weather-resistant plastic. The body further has a clip assembly that allows the device to attach to a propane gauge of a propane tank and a piping/tubing that attaches to the tank. The device is further comprised of an internal pressure gauge that reads the pressure of the propane gas being pushed out from the tank to determine the level of propane gas left in the tank and relay said information to the mobile application.

A type IV conformable pressure vessel is provided comprising an elongated folded tank and a valve assembly configured to pass fluid into and out of an interior of the tank through first and second filling couplers directly connected to a respective first and second end of the tank. The tank has at least two chambers for the storage of fluid. The valve assembly receives fluid from an external source, selectively provides the external fluid through a Venturi nozzle into a mixing chamber, recirculates fluid from the second end of the tank into the mixing chamber, and delivers the mixture of the recirculated fluid and the external fluid to the first end of the tank.

A storage system for storing a cryogenic medium, in particular, for storing hydrogen. The storage system includes storage container for receiving the cryogenic medium, at least one pipe projecting from outside the storage container into the storage container, and a shut-off valve in fluidic communication with the at least one pipe. The at least one pipe is closed at an end thereof facing away from the storage container and is open at another end thereof located in the storage container. The shut-off valve is moveable between an open operating state in which an inner space of the at least one pipe is in fluidic communication with an inner space of the storage container, and a closed operating state in which the inner space of the at least pipe is not in fluidic communication with the inner space of the storage container.

A cryogenic fluid fueling system includes a first container configured to contain a first cryogenic liquid with a first headspace being positioned above the first cryogenic liquid. A heat exchanger vaporizes a portion of the first cryogenic liquid such that pressure within the first container is raised as vaporized cryogen moves into the first headspace. A second container is configured to contain a second cryogenic liquid with a second headspace being positioned above the second cryogenic liquid. A condensing coil is positioned within the second headspace of the second container and fluidically connected to the first interior of the first container such that a portion of the first cryogenic liquid is propelled into the condensing coil and is warmed to provide a first cryogenic vapor.

A storage vessel to contain reagent material. The storage vessel includes a vessel with a bottom, a top, an outlet at the top, sidewalls extending from the bottom to the top, a valve at the outlet, and an interior defined by the bottom, the top, and the sidewalls, the interior including a volume, and an extension tube having a first end engaged with the valve and a second end located toward a center of the interior volume from the first end such that, regardless of orientation of the vessel, the second end is above at least 25 percent of a volume of the interior volume.

A cryogenic dewar may include an inner tank and an outer tank. The cryogenic dewar may further include a plurality of trunnion mounts. A first four of the trunnion mounts may be coupled between a front half of the inner tank and a front half of the outer tank. A second four of the trunnion mounts may be coupled between a rear half of the inner tank and a rear half of the outer tank. The trunnion mount may be further strengthen with a plurality of pie-shaped reinforcing pads welded to each other and to an outer surface of the inner tank.

A pigtail hose is described for connecting a gas canister to a gas regulator. The pigtail hose includes a gas hose having an inlet end and an outlet end; and an elbow fitting connected to the inlet end of the gas hose. The elbow fitting has a bore which turns the gas supply through 90° at a convenient point of the gas supply assembly to assist with the connection of the canister in a confined storage space.

Methods of, and control systems for, operating modular, liquid natural gas (LNG) manifold apparatuses, crossover systems for such modular manifold apparatuses, and systems including one or more of the modular manifold apparatuses and a plurality of ISO tank containers. The modular manifold apparatus includes an ISO container (e.g., an open-frame ISO container) with a plurality of container connection sections or bays, a liquid system, and a vent system, where each of the liquid and vent systems includes a header and a plurality of connection lines configured to be coupled to the respective liquid and vent connections of LNG containers adjacent the modular manifold apparatus.
