Abstract: A method of supplying vaporized gas from a storage tank storing the gas in liquified form in a lower liquid region and having a vapor region thereover, the method including employing an external source of heat to heat a heat exchange liquid to no more than about 35° C., bringing the heat exchange liquid into heat exchange relation with at least a portion of the liquified gas so as to transfer heat from the external source of heat to the liquified gas, and supplying vaporized gas to the consumer, according to the consumer demand, directly from the vapor region of the storage tank. The heat exchange relation is controlled such that the at least portion of the liquified gas which is heated remains mostly in a liquified state but that the temperature of the liquified gas is prevented from falling below a predefined minimum operational temperature.

Abstract: Closure modules are coupled to and enclose ends of a multi-cell pressure vessel, especially a multi-cell pressure vessel having arcuate outer wall segments connected by internal web segments that define a plurality of cells in the pressure vessel. The closure modules each have an arcuate surface portion and at least one interfacing surface portion integrally connected at a marginal extent thereof with a marginal extent of the arcuate surface portion. The arcuate surface and interfacing surface portions define a closure module chamber and have peripheral edges. The arcuate surface portion of one of the closure modules abuts contiguously against an interfacing surface portion of an adjacent one of the closure modules. The closure modules are particularly useful for use with multi-cell tanks and vessel bodies, especially tanks and vessels suitable for storing liquid propane.

Abstract: A canister assembly includes a canister, a plug enclosure, a vent mechanism, a delivery valve mechanism, and a protective handle. The plug enclosure may be attached to the canister at an opening and forms a pressurized seal of the interior cavity of the canister. The vent mechanism automatically reduces pressure when pressure inside the canister exceeds a preset level. The delivery valve mechanism can be automatically and remotely activated subject to a user's control to provide gaseous flow from the canister. The protective handle is fastened to the canister and includes the handle docking element. A docking assembly includes a canister assembly, a manifold assembly, a docking station, and a docking mechanism. The docking mechanism includes a handle docking element and a port docking element. The manifold assembly includes a manifold and at least one port attached to the manifold. The docking station includes a canister bay, protective housing, and the port docking element.
