The disclosed gas cylinder safety valve includes a valve part configured to discharge gas with which a main body is filled and a gas blocking part disposed in the valve part and configured to block a gas flow path in accordance with a pressure inside the main body, wherein the gas blocking part includes a blocking operation part disposed in the valve part, a blocking pin member disposed to be slidable in the blocking operation part and configured to selectively block the gas flow path, and a separation preventing cap coupled to the blocking operation part and configured to prevent separation of the blocking pin member.

The present disclosure relates to a natural gas hydrate tank container loading system for transporting natural gas hydrate, and the present disclosure provides a natural gas hydrate tank container loading system, enabling self-powered power generation and boil-off (BOG) gas treatment, includes: a refrigerator for inhibiting the generation of boil-off gas which naturally generates in a natural gas hydrate tank container during transportation; and a solar cell, a battery, and a generator, which operates by means of the boil-off gas, for supplying electric power to the refrigerator, thereby ensuring a generation capacity sufficient to operate the refrigerator by means of the solar cell, the generator, and the battery, and thus always maintaining a stable phase equilibrium (self-preservation) in the natural gas hydrate tank container even during long-distance transportation and solving problems of fire, environmental pollution, or the like which occur when the boil-off gas (BOG) is discharged to the outside.

A system for storing air at high pressure underground or underwater includes a plurality of arrays of air tanks, each tank configured to store compressed air at a pressure of at least 40 bar. A piping system connects between an outlet of each air tank, the piping system further including at least one central port for delivering compressed air to and from a respective array. A storage receptacle surrounds the arrays and piping system, protecting the arrays and piping system from an external environment, and thermally insulating the arrays and piping system. A liquid bath is arranged within the storage receptacle. A heat exchanger is configured to maintain a temperature of the liquid bath substantially constant. The storage receptacle may be comprised of plastic pieces welded together in a modular fashion. Each piece may be a cylindrical tube configured to receive therein one or more of the arrays.

A phase change accumulator assembly includes an inner pressure vessel, an outer pressure vessel, and at least one intermediate pressure vessel. The inner, the at least one intermediate, and the outer pressure vessels are nested concentrically such that the at least one intermediate pressure vessel is within the outer pressure vessel, and the inner pressure vessel is within the at least one intermediate pressure vessel.

A high-pressure hydrogen container is provided that has a simple configuration, requiring less labor for manufacture, achieving reduced manufacturing costs, and ensuring pressure resistance. The high-pressure hydrogen container includes a metal cylinder configured to store high-pressure hydrogen, a pair of lid parts configured to cover both end portions of the metal cylinder, and a plurality of fastening parts configured to fix the pair of lid parts in a state where the metal cylinder is clamped between the pair of lid parts.

A cold-box system includes a bulk gas tank, and a plurality of cold-box compartments operationally associated with the bulk gas tank. A cold-box apparatus includes a plurality of cold-box compartments operationally associated with a bulk gas tank. In one embodiment the cold-box compartments may be spaced apart from the tank aboard a waterborne platform. The system and apparatus provide redundancy regarding power aboard ship for the bulk gas tank.

A pressure vessel comprising a pipe closed at each end with a novel plug/compression cap, the plug at one end of the pipe having a port for connection to a pressure regulating device.

An apparatus for feeding gas mixtures to a compressor comprising a tubular mixing pipe connected with the compressor intake, first and second gas intake devices injecting into the mixing pipe gas received from a Helium source and an Oxygen source respectively, two sensors measuring the Oxygen percentage of the gas mixture, a first servo-controlled throttling valve interposed between the first gas intake device and the Helium source, a second servo-controlled throttling valve interposed between the second gas intake device and the Oxygen source, and a control unit configured to manage the throttling valves depending on the Oxygen percentages of the gas mixture measured by the sensors. The apparatus includes first and second auxiliary pressure regulators, electrically connected with the control unit, interposed respectively between the first servo-controlled valve and a manual regulator of the Helium source and between the second servo-controlled valve and a manual regulator of the Oxygen source.

A cryogenic liquid tank (1) includes a reservoir (5) that includes a bottom portion (5a, 5a1, or 5a2) and a side wall (5b), a support portion (4) that supports the reservoir (5), and an intermediate member (10) that is provided between the reservoir (5) and the support portion (4). The support portion (4) includes an outer support portion (4b) which supports the side wall (5b), and an inner support portion (4a) which is disposed to be adjacent to an inner side of the outer support portion (4b), includes a heat insulating layer formed of an elastic material, and supports the bottom portion (5a, 5a1, or 5a2) of the reservoir (5). A cover portion (9a, 9a1, or 15) covering a boundary between the outer support portion (4b) and the inner support portion (4a) is provided between the support portion (4) and the intermediate member (10).

A heat-insulating container being used under an environment where exposure to water of liquid is possible, includes a container main body having a substance holding portion which holds a substance at a temperature which is lower than a normal temperature on the inside of the substance holding portion; and a heat-insulating structure body which is provided in the container main body and includes at least a vacuum heat-insulating material. In addition, the vacuum heat-insulating material includes an outer cover material and an inner member sealed in a tightly closed and decompressed state on an inside of the outer cover material. In addition, the inner member is configured of a material which does not generate hydrogen in a case of coming into contact with the moisture of the liquid.
