Technical Data:

Understanding the Nuances of Liquid CO2 Storage:

Carbon dioxide (CO2) exhibits unique thermodynamic properties, existing as a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas under normal atmospheric conditions. However, it transforms into a liquid state when cooled below its critical temperature of 31°C (87.8°F) and maintained above its triple point temperature of -56.6°C (-69.9°F) at a pressure exceeding 5.18 bar (absolute).

Therefore, safe and efficient long-term liquid CO2 storage necessitates the use of specialized cryogenic tanks specifically engineered to accommodate these critical properties and maintain the CO2 in its liquid phase. Maintaining a pressure of 22 bar (approximately 319 psi) or less and temperatures around -18°C (0°F) is crucial for long-term stability.  The effectiveness of the tank's thermal insulation system is of paramount importance in preventing heat ingress, minimizing CO2 vaporization, and preserving the integrity of the stored product.
