Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Storage Tanks - Applicable Volume and Applications

1. 60-cubic-meter LNG vacuum powder-insulated tank, available in sizes from 5 to 200 cubic meters. Suitable for residential gasification stations, industrial gasification stations, LNG fueling stations, small skid-mounted liquefaction units, and refrigerant storage, etc.

2. Mother-child horizontal low-temperature storage tanks, 300 to 5,000 cubic meters, suitable for small liquefaction units, air separation units, civil gasification stations, industrial gasification stations, and LNG gasification stations, etc.

3. Horizontal and Lying Low-Temperature Storage Tanks, 100~10,000 cubic meters, suitable for small and medium-sized liquefaction units, peak-shaving liquefaction units, air separation units, LNG storage and distribution stations, LNG gasification stations, etc.

4. Vertical flat-bottomed cylindrical storage tanks, ranging from 200 to 200,000 cubic meters, suitable for various liquefaction facilities, LNG storage and distribution stations, LNG regasification stations, air separation units, liquid hydrocarbon storage, and coastal LNG receiving terminals.

Vacuum powder insulation storage tanks consist of an inner cylinder and an outer cylinder, with the annular space insulated using vacuum powder insulation technology. Due to transportation limitations, the maximum tank capacity is currently 200 m³, suitable for storing smaller volumes of liquid.

When the storage volume exceeds 200 m³, a 60 cubic meter LNG storage tank can be connected in parallel as a cluster tank using multiple vacuum powder insulating storage tanks. When the storage volume exceeds 1500 m³, it is advisable to use a horizontal sub-mother type low-temperature storage tank (abbreviated as sub-mother tank), which, compared to the cluster tank, has the advantages of fewer station equipment, lower investment, convenient operation and maintenance, and reliable safety. The sub-mother tank is composed of multiple (more than 3) sub-tanks in parallel to form the inner tank, and assembled into one large outer tank (mother tank). The sub-mother tank is also limited by transportation and lifting conditions, with a maximum single tank volume of 250 m³ and a total maximum volume of 5000 m³. When the storage volume exceeds 200 m³, spherical horizontal low-temperature storage tanks and vertical flat-bottomed cylindrical horizontal low-temperature storage tanks can also be chosen. When the storage volume exceeds 10,000 m³, horizontal flat-bottomed cylindrical low-temperature storage tanks are more commonly used. During the actual selection process, when the storage volume is less than or equal to 200 m³, a vacuum powder insulating storage tank with mature manufacturing and installation technology is chosen for the 60 cubic meter LNG storage tank.

60-cubic-meter LNG storage tank is a low-temperature insulated vacuum powder insulation type. Its structure consists of an inner container and an outer container forming a double-walled design. Materials used are Austenitic stainless steel, with the outer container material chosen as Q235-B or 16MnR based on the user's location. The gap between the inner and outer containers is filled with insulation material, Pearlite sand, and vacuumed. Insulation material is filled with Pearlite sand under a heated state and vacuumed.

60-cubic-meter LNG Storage Tank: Development of Liquefied Natural Gas Storage Tanks

With the development of the gas and natural gas industries, the application of liquefied natural gas (LNG) storage tanks has become increasingly widespread. In addition to large-scale LNG facilities and LNG receiving stations, which are equipped with large and extra-large horizontal low-temperature storage tanks, air separation units, medium and small-scale LNG facilities, LNG storage and distribution stations, and LNG liquefaction plants generally have medium and small horizontal low-temperature storage tanks with capacities below 10,000 m³. As the core equipment in these units, the selection of the storage tank type significantly impacts the entire facility's cost and operating expenses. Therefore, choosing the appropriate type of horizontal low-temperature storage tank to meet the equipment requirements has become particularly important.
