A system for cryogenic gas delivery includes a cryogenic tank configured to contain a cryogenic liquid and a gas within a headspace above the cryogenic liquid. The system also includes first and second vaporizers and a use outlet. A first pipe is configured to transfer gas from the headspace through the first vaporizer to the use outlet. A second pipe is configured to transfer liquid from the tank through the first vaporizer so that a first vapor stream is directed to the use outlet. A third pipe is configured to build pressure within the tank by transferring liquid from the tank through the second vaporizer so that a second vapor stream is directed back to the headspace of the tank. A first regulator valve is in fluid communication with the second pipe and opens when a pressure on an outlet side of the first regulator drops below a first predetermined pressure level. A second regulator valve is in fluid communication with the third pipe and opens when a pressure inside the tank drops below a second predetermined pressure level. The first predetermined pressure level is higher than the second predetermined pressure level.

A system for recycling helium comprising a bursting chamber with a re-sealable lid and a vent; a bursting mechanism disposed inside the bursting chamber; wherein the bursting chamber is in fluid communication with a compressor; wherein an output of the compressor is in fluid communication with an evacuation valve and a control valve; wherein when the evacuation valve is opened and the control valve is closed the compressor evacuates the air from the bursting chamber; and wherein when the evacuation valve is closed and the control valve is opened, and the bursting mechanism is activated, compressed helium gas recovered from balloons burst in the bursting chamber flows through the control valve into a helium storage tank.

This invention can provide a hydrogen refueling system capable to reduce waiting time for refueling H.sub.2 to vehicles. The system is designed and operated to acquire the residual pressure in the vehicle the that connects to the dispenser, then to calculate sufficient conditions to perform complete refueling of the connected vehicle (in particular minimum pressure in buffers), and then to start H.sub.2 transfer to the vehicle as soon as the conditions are met. Waiting time can be further reduced with minimum investment by having a H.sub.2 dispenser with two H.sub.2 refueling hoses which has only one H.sub.2 flow control valve and/or only one H.sub.2 cooling heat exchanger and/or only one H.sub.2 flow metering system.

A system and a method for dispensing a liquefied fuel (e.g., hydrogen) are provided. The system includes a cryotank for storing a liquefied fuel, a pump insertable into the cryotank, and a switching valve. The pump has a piston, an intake port, and an isolation valve configured to supply the liquefied fuel to the intake port. The switching valve is controlled to flow the vapor from the pump and the liquefied fuel contacting a backside of the piston to the intake port of the pump. At least one block valve is also connected with the cryotank and the pump. At least one of the switching valve, the at least one block valve, and the isolation valve can be controlled to operate the system in one of three working modes including a pressure increase mode, a pressure maintaining mode, and a pressure decrease mode.

A method for filling at least one buffer container of a hydrogen filling station, the station comprising a fluid circuit linked to said at least one buffer container, the circuit of the filling station comprising a first end linked to at least one source of hydrogen gas, the circuit comprising a second end provided with a transfer conduit intended to be removably connected to a tank, the method being characterized in that it comprises a step of determining the current concentration of at least one impurity in the hydrogen in the buffer container during the filling of same, a step of comparing said current concentration of the impurity relative to a predefined threshold concentration and, when the current concentration of the at least one impurity reaches said threshold concentration, stopping the filling of said buffer container.

A method for controlling purging of hydrogen from a hydrogen circuit system of a vehicle, the hydrogen circuit system having a hydrogen conduit being arranged in fluid communication with at least one hydrogen tank, the method being implemented by a hydrogen control system comprising at least one processing circuitry, the method comprising deactivating one or more vehicle functions and vehicle systems into a non-ignitable state in response to a control signal indicative of a request for purging the hydrogen circuit system, and performing purging of the hydrogen circuit system when the one or more vehicle functions and vehicle systems are set into the non-ignitable state.

A filling station for pressurized fluids has a storage container and a dispenser supplied thereby, comprising a high-pressure path and a low-pressure path. The storage container is partitioned into separate sections, which are each connected to the input of a high-pressure pump via a first switching valve and to the output of said high-pressure pump via a second switching valve. The first or second switching valves are connected on their pump sides to the low-pressure path of the dispenser via a third switching valve. The output of the high-pressure pump supplies a high-pressure reservoir via a fourth switching valve, which high-pressure reservoir is connected to the high-pressure path of the dispenser via a fifth switching valve.
