Disclosed is a pneumatic membrane gasometer for the storage of hydrogen gas at low pressure. The gasometer includes: a first bag-shaped membrane delimiting a hydrogen storage chamber; a second membrane partially delimiting a pressurization chamber superimposed, at least in part, on the storage chamber; a third membrane, placed resting on top of the first membrane, fixed in an impermeable manner at least to the second membrane, defining, with the first membrane, a cavity open towards the outside of the gasometer; hydrogen supply and discharge unit associated with the storage chamber; pressurization unit; mechanical anchor to a base surface of the first, second and third membranes; and a natural passive ventilation system to vent any hydrogen losses to the outside, including a duct adapted to connect cavity to the outside environment passing through the pressurization chamber.

Disclosed are a processing apparatus, a corrugated plate, and a storage container. The processing apparatus includes a pair of slide plates, a pair of press plates, a shaping block, and a driving mechanism. The driving mechanism includes a slide plate driving portion linked to a shaping block driving portion, allowing the slide plate driving portion drives the pair of slide plates to approach each other at a first predetermined speed, the shaping block driving portion moves the shaping block downward at a second predetermined speed, and the first and second predetermined speed are specifically correlated with respect to a predetermined forming profile of an intersection portion. The processing apparatus of the present disclosure causes running speeds of various portions that move in different directions to extrude a blank plate to be specifically associated, so that the formation process is particularly applicable to a corrugated plate having the predetermined corrugated shape.

Scalable greenhouse gas capture systems and methods to allow a user to off-load exhaust captured in an on-board vehicle exhaust capture device and to allow for a delivery vehicle or other transportation mechanism to obtain and transport the exhaust. The systems and methods may involve one or more exhaust pumps, each with a multi-function nozzle assembly including an exhaust nozzle corresponding to a vehicle exhaust port and a fuel nozzle for supplying fuel to a vehicle fuel tank. Upon engagement with the vehicle exhaust port, the exhaust nozzle may create an air-tight seal between the exhaust nozzle and the vehicle exhaust port. An exhaust conduit may be configured to transport captured exhaust therethrough from the exhaust nozzle to an exhaust holding tank connected to and in fluid communication with the exhaust conduit.

A triple containment tank includes an outer tank, an intermediate tank located in the outer tank, an inner tank located in the intermediate tank and storing a liquefied gas therein, and a pipe penetrating the outer tank, the intermediate tank, and the inner tank. The pipe is coupled to the outer tank through a first expandable pipe, is coupled to one of the inner tank and the intermediate tank through a second expandable pipe, and is joined to the other of the inner tank and the intermediate tank.

Vessels, wall structures, transfer hoses and systems for storing and transferring liquid cryogens are provided and are based on an elastic layer comprised of a polymer fabric impregnated with a cured resin. The elastic layer is substantially impervious to liquid cryogen, for example LNG, and retains elastic properties at typical cryogenic temperatures.

A precast, prestressed concrete tank and method that facilitates construction of a primary inner tank within a secondary outer tank, and which permits for the construction of the primary inner tank after the secondary outer tank has been erected, but without requiring insertion through a top of the secondary outer tank, or by tunneling underneath the secondary outer tank, is disclosed. The primary inner tank has an inner wall and the secondary outer tank has an outer wall (precast, prestressed concrete) and wire windings. The primary inner tank is disposed inside of the secondary outer tank. The secondary outer tank has a plurality of first precast outer wall panels, and a temporary construction opening frame. The temporary construction opening frame defines an access doorway during construction of the tank. The temporary construction opening frame is disposed on a foundation base slab.

Method of constructing a vault of a large storage tank for liquefied natural gas by first modeling the vault with a 3-D modeling software application, then partially building the vault with a framework and a first set of covering panels fixed on the framework where the panels do not touch each other, but leave a number of gaps between them, measuring the dimensions of the actual gaps between the panels using a 3-D scanner, producing a second set of panels according to the scanned dimensional data, and finally filled the gaps between the first set of panels with the second set of panels, which are much smaller than the first set of panels, making the building process earlier and more accurate, which are difficult issues in building large tanks for liquefied natural gas.

This group of inventions relates to gas industry, in particular, to land storage of natural gas, and it may be used for storage, distribution and supply of natural gas, methane or associated petroleum gas, regardless of geological and geographic characteristics of the complex location. Complex of strategic land storage provides for energy efficient and safe storage, distribution and supply of natural gas, methane and/or associated petroleum gas in the adsorbed condition within a wide range of temperatures and pressures. Method for adsorptive storage of natural gas, methane in the complex for land adsorptive storage of natural gas includes offtake of natural gas from a gas source, its treatment including purification from solid inclusions and foreign admixtures, and treatment of microporous adsorbent in the high-pressure tank of the land gas adsorptive storage module, further filling of the gas storage unit with purified gas directly from the gas source through the natural gas treatment unit until the gas source pressure is achieved, and then, through the natural gas compression unit, until the gas storage pressure of 3-10 MPa is achieved.
