    Abstract: A dual purpose recirculation valve system for a cryogenic vessel includes a fill line, a delivery line assembly, a recirculation line and a recirculation valve. The cryogenic vessel defines a storage space and includes a pressure monitoring device structured to monitor the pressure in the storage space, as well as an electronic control system structured to receive input from the pressure monitoring device. The fill line is structured to be coupled to a bulk tank, whereby the storage space is filled with a cryogenic fluid. The delivery line assembly has a delivery coupling assembly and the delivery line assembly structured to remove the cryogenic fluid from the storage space and deliver the cryogenic fluid to the delivery coupling assembly. The recirculation line extends between, and is in fluid communication with both, the fill line and the delivery line assembly. The recirculation valve is disposed on the fill line at a location between the recirculation line and the storage space, the recirculation valve structured to close when the cryogenic vessel pressure exceeds a set limit. In this configuration, the recirculation valve acts as both a recirculation valve and as a valve to avert over-pressurization during a fill.

    Abstract: An economizer circuit assembly for a cryogenic liquid vessel assembly is disclosed. The cryogenic liquid vessel assembly includes a first, outer shell and a second, inner shell defining a storage space. The storage space has a liquid space and a vapor space. The cryogenic vessel also has a delivery line extending from outside the first, outer vessel shell into the liquid space. The economizer circuit assembly includes a vent line and an integration device. The vent line extends from outside the first, outer shell into the cryogenic vessel. The vent line has a first end and a second end. The first end is disposed in the vapor space. The vent line and the delivery line are coupled, and in fluid communication at, the integration device.

    Abstract: A liquid natural gas filling system structured to store a cryogenic fluid at a low pressure and fill a use vessel at a high pressure. The filling system includes a first, low pressure vessel, at least one second, high pressure vessel, a plurality of conduits, each conduit in the plurality having a valve, extending between, and in fluid communication within the first, low pressure vessel and the at least one second, high pressure vessel, a pressure building means coupled to the at least one second, high pressure vessel and structured to raise the pressure of a cryogenic liquid within the at least one second, high pressure vessel, and an outlet nozzle structured to be coupled to a use vessel, the outlet nozzle coupled via the plurality of conduits to, and in fluid communication with, the first, low pressure vessel and the second, high pressure vessel. The filling system is structured so that a cryogenic liquid may be stored in the first, low pressure vessel at a low pressure. The cryogenic liquid at a low pressure may further be transferred to the at least one second, high pressure vessel via the plurality of conduits. The pressure of the cryogenic liquid at a low pressure in the at least one second, high pressure vessel may be increased to a high pressure by actuating the pressure building means. Thus, the cryogenic liquid at a high pressure in the at least one second, high pressure vessel may be transferred from the at least one second, high pressure vessel to a use vessel via the plurality of conduits and the nozzle.
