Cryogenic containers are suitable for transporting all kinds of liquids that need to be kept at low temperatures due to their special insulated design and construction. Here are some common liquids that are suitable for shipping in cryogenic containers:
Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG)
Liquefied natural gas is a liquid state formed by compression and cooling of natural gas, which is mainly used for energy supply. Due to the need to remain liquid at extremely low temperatures, cryogenic vessels provide the necessary insulation to ensure the stability of LNG during transportation.
Liquid Oxygen (LOX)
Liquid oxygen is the liquid form of oxygen and is widely used in aerospace, medical, and industrial applications. Cryogenic containers keep liquid oxygen at extremely low temperatures, preventing it from evaporating and converting to a gaseous state, ensuring safe transportation.
Liquid nitrogen (LIN)
Liquid nitrogen is the liquid form of nitrogen and is commonly used in areas such as freezing, refrigeration, and scientific research. Cryogenic containers are effective in keeping liquid nitrogen cold, preventing it from evaporating and rising in temperature.
Liquid hydrogen (LH2)
Liquid hydrogen is the liquid form of hydrogen and has important applications in aerospace and energy as a high-energy fuel. Due to the extremely low boiling point of hydrogen, cryogenic vessels are able to provide the necessary insulation conditions to ensure the stability of liquid hydrogen during transportation.
Liquid helium (LHe)
Liquid helium is the liquid form of helium and is widely used in scientific research, superconductivity experiments, and cooling technology. Cryogenic containers are able to keep liquid helium at extremely low temperatures, preventing it from evaporating and rising in temperature.
Liquid fluorine (LF)
Liquid fluorine plays an important role in semiconductor manufacturing and other chemical processes. Due to their need to remain liquid at extremely low temperatures, cryogenic containers are able to provide the required adiabatic environment.
Liquid carbon dioxide (LCO₂)
Liquid carbon dioxide is used in a wide range of applications such as refrigeration, beverage manufacturing, and fire suppression. Cryogenic vessels are able to keep liquid carbon dioxide at the right low temperature, preventing it from being converted into a gaseous state.
It is important to note that different cryogenic liquids may require cryogenic containers of different specifications and designs to be transported to suit their specific physical and chemical properties. In addition, during transportation, it is necessary to strictly comply with relevant safety regulations and operating procedures to ensure the safety and reliability of transportation.
