    摘要: A system for the transportation and storage of a product comprising a tank including a cylindrical wall section and two ends which define a cylindrical tank periphery, wherein the tank periphery has an interior and an exterior; a recessed valve box including one or more side walls, a bottom wall, and a removable, sealable top cover which can be attached to the one or more side walls to seal the valve box, wherein the valve box side walls are sealably joined to the cylindrical wall section such that the valve box extends through the cylindrical wall section into the interior of the tank periphery and is partially or totally disposed in the interior of the tank periphery; and one or more valves disposed in the valve box. Each valve has a first and a second end, wherein each first end may be connected to a pipe which passes through a wall of the valve box for introducing product into the tank or withdrawing product from the tank, wherein the valves are disposed partially or totally within the tank periphery, and wherein the tank has a rigid framework surrounding the tank and valve box, wherein the framework is attached to and supports the tank, and wherein the framework defines a periphery which encloses the periphery of the tank. The product in the tank can be isolated from the atmosphere surrounding the tank when the valves are closed.

    摘要: A process and system for conditioning a bulk container for ultra-high purity liquefied gas. Vapor is generated in the container from a conditioning quantity of the ultra-high purity liquefied gas by imposing a temperature difference on the container so that the vapor condenses when a temperature difference is achieved. The resulting liquid reflux, e.g., the condensed liquid drips or flows back to the conditioning quantity of the liquified gas, washes or removes contaminants, e.g., particles, metal and moisture, from the interior surface of the container. A portion of the vapor is vented from the container for reclamation. The used conditioning liquid may also be reclaimed.

    摘要: A dynamic blending gas delivery system and method are disclosed. A blended gaseous mixture produced in accordance with the method is used in chemical vapor deposition tools or similar process tools. One embodiment is a multi-step method for processing a plurality of fluids to form a blended gaseous mixture and supplying the blended gaseous mixture to a distribution header from which the blended gaseous mixture is delivered to at least one tool. The first step is to supply a first fluid. The second step is to heat the first fluid to a temperature where at least some portion of the first fluid is a vapor. The third step is to superheat the vapor portion of the first fluid to a temperature sufficient to avoid condensation of the blended gaseous mixture delivered to the at least one tool. The fourth step is to supply a second fluid. The fifth step is to heat the second fluid to a temperature sufficient to avoid condensation of the superheated vapor portion of the first fluid when the superheated vapor portion comes in contact with the second fluid. The sixth step is to combine the heated second fluid and the superheated vapor portion of the first fluid to form a blended gaseous mixture having desired physical and chemical properties for chemical vapor deposition, epitaxial film growth, or a similar process. The final step is to deliver the blended gaseous mixture to the distribution header. In the preferred embodiment, the first fluid is trichlorosilane and the second fluid is hydrogen.
