Erfindungsgemäß ist vorgesehen, dass sich die Zuführleitung (9) an den zylinderförmigen Mantel (4a) des Innenbehälters (2) anschließt.
Abstract:
A method and system for producing an oxygen product stream in which sensible heat from a compressed air stream is indirectly exchanged with a vaporized pumped liquid oxygen stream in a main heat exchanger and latent heat is exchanged in an auxiliary heat exchanger connected to the main heat exchanger. The latent heat exchange produces subcooled liquid air that is fed into a low pressure column of the air separation plant and vaporization of the pumped liquid. Part of the subcooled liquid air can be withdrawn from the auxiliary heat exchanger at a higher temperature than the remainder of the subcooled liquid air. All or part of the subcooled liquid air can be further cooled within the main heat exchanger. As a result, low temperature, subcooled liquid air is produced that allows for an increased oxygen recovery and also, argon recovery if an argon column is present.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method, as well as a system, for filling a container (100) with an amount of liquid carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) which is partially converted into an amount of solid CO 2 into said container (100), for the purpose of maintaining one or more products, loaded into said container (100), at a defined temperature, below a defined temperature, or within a defined temperature range, which temperature or temperature range is below environmental temperature. The invention further relates to a method and a system for providing identification and traceability data determining the container (100) and its loaded one or more products, and for enabling the identification of said container (100) during transport to a particular destination.
Abstract:
Regulator with simplified and secure-fit support for gas cylinders, comprising an integrated support (1, 2, 3, 4) for mounting directly and without the use of tools on cylinders comprising valves, and a safety knob (5) guarded against any unwanted removal, such as, for example, in the means of transport and the vibrating machinery used in factories or on worksites. The assembly between regulator and its support is permanent and compact, and potentially allows the full cylinder to be grasped because of the robust and ergonomic design. The system is supplemented by the provision of a central pressure gauge incorporated into the regulator, intended to check the fill condition of the cylinder.
Abstract:
L'invention concerne un procédé de réchauffage d'un liquide cryogénique contenu dans un réservoir cryogénique (1) avec un ciel gazeux (18). Ledit liquide cryogénique est chauffé par injection d'un gaz plus chaud sous une surface libre (17) du liquide cryogénique.
Abstract:
A gas cylinder (1) comprising a cylinder body (2) with a tubular wall (5) having at least a first tubular portion (11) that is enlarged, and at least a second tubular portion (12) that is adjacent and narrowed relative to the first tubular portion (11).
Abstract:
A gas cylinder (l) comprises a cylinder body (2) internally defining a gas storage space (3) which is closable through a closure valve (4), as well as a' threaded tubular neck (10), formed at the cylinder body (2) so as to be able to receive such closure valve (4) in communication with the gas storage space (3). The neck (10) comprises an inner portion (11) internally threaded and projecting inwardly into the gas storage space (3) in the cylinder body (2).
Abstract:
A reusable container which provides flame and thermal protection for shipping hazardous materials such as cylinders containing compressed gas has a flame resistant reinforced outer shell having a bottom section hingedly coupled to a top section. A first inner layer of thermal insulating material is fitted into the top and bottom sections of the outer shell. An optional second inner layer of shock absorbing material with thermal insulating properties is fitted next to the first inner layer and configured to contact and conform to surface sections of the compressed gas cylinder. An interior liner comprised of a durable liner constructed of fabric or molded heat-resistant plastic.
Abstract:
In a system including a gas source, a target cylinder for receiving gas, a conduit for carrying gas, and a valve for controlling the flow of gas, a method of dosing the target cylinder with gas is disclosed. The method comprises the step of calculating a mass flow rate for dosing the conduit and the target cylinder. The valve is biased to an open position to permit gas to flow through the conduit and into the target cylinder. The mass flow rate and the cumulative mass of gas flowing through the conduit are measured using a mass flow meter. The valve is biased to maintain the measured mass flow rate of gas flowing through the conduit substantially equivalent to the calculated mass flow rate. The valve is biased to a closed position once the measured cumulative mass of gas is substantially equivalent to the pre-determined mass of gas.
Abstract:
A tank jacket fits over the outside of a storage tank. The jacket includes a hole for receiving the regulator assembly. The tank jacket supports a hose support assembly for storing the supply hose and a plurality of pockets for retaining various accessories and tools. A gauge protector fits over the regulator assembly and includes a first housing section defining a first cavity for receiving the regulator and a second housing section defining a second cavity for receiving the pressure gauge. A handle is formed on the gauge protector to facilitate carrying of the tank. The gauge protector and tank jacket protect the tank and regulator assembly and provide a system for transporting the tank and related equipment.
