Liquefaction (LNG) Process
The ambient vaporizer use natural convection of air to vaporize cryogenic liquefied gases.Aluminum fin tubes of ambient vaporizer absorb heat from the air and transfer that heat to the product gas. The large fin tube pitch provides room for ice growth and allows for more than 480 hours of continuous operation without defrost,making super pitch ideal for severe climates and long duration operation. Beside of standard aluminum construction, units are available with stainless steel and other alloy liners for high pressure and corrosive applications.
