Currently, the use of natural gas is limited due to problems with its transportation. Its gaseous and liquid state leads to a significant increase the weight of the tanks, reducing spaciousness and mobility of vehicles.
Today, this problem can be solved by a liquid methane cryogenic fuel tanks.
Liquid methane 600 times greater density than of gas at low pressure (3 times greater density than that of methane gas at a pressure of 200 bar), this provides a significant advantage in terms of transported volume and hence the controllability of the vehicle.
Advantages of the cryogenic tank:
- Reducing the size and weight of the fuel tank;
- Better handling vehicle;
- Fuel economy;
- Significant reduction in costs;
- Reduction of harmful effects on the environment;
- Ability to use in urban areas.
The innovation is currently available on the market and can improve the competitiveness in the transport sector, while having a positive effect on the environment.
