LNG storage. The advantage of LNG is that the significant reduction in volume when natural gas is liquefied makes it practical to store. LNG is stored in cryogenic tanks designed to keep the LNG below the vaporization temperature. The job of the tank is to contain the gas and to insulate it from warming due to heat from the surrounding air.
Hydrogen has more energy per unit mass (141.8 MJ/kg) than any other fuel but also has the lowest gaseous density (0.084 kg/m 3), and liquid hydrogen (LH 2) storage is a solution with high energy density.However, LH 2 storage has the characteristics of low temperature (20 K) and easy evaporation, putting forward higher requirements for …

Air receiver tanks hold air under immense pressure. This creates safety hazards if the tank is not up to code or is not maintained properly. Pressure vessels must be built to withstand high internal pressures over a long period of time. Over time, corrosion, stress and fatigue can make tank failure more likely.
