Indirect gas/fuel fired vaporizers: efficiency and reliability in cryogenic applications

Large-scale cryogenic gas vaporization demands efficiency, stability, and reliability. Indirect gas/fuel fired vaporizers (IFVs) provide a high-performance solution for industries such as LNG regasification, hydrogen supply, and industrial gas applications. By ensuring precise temperature control and continuous high-capacity output, IFVs play a critical role in maintaining seamless operations.


At Cryonorm, we design and manufacture state-of-the-art IFVs tailored for the most demanding applications.


How do indirect gas/fuel fired vaporizers work?

Unlike direct-fired systems, IFVs use a heat transfer medium, typically water, glycol, or another thermal fluid, to transfer energy to the cryogenic liquid. This indirect heating method eliminates direct flame contact, making the process safer and more controlled.


The Process:

- A gas burner or fuel combustion system heats the thermal fluid.

- The heated fluid circulates through heat exchangers, transferring energy indirectly.

- The cryogenic liquid absorbs the heat, converting into gas.

- The system ensures a precise and consistent gas output, even under fluctuating demand conditions.


Advantages of indirect gas/fuel fired vaporizers

- High thermal efficiency: maximized heat transfer reduces fuel consumption while delivering high output.

- Compact & modular design: space-efficient solutions adaptable to various plant layouts.

- Reliable in extreme climates: unlike ambient vaporizers, IFVs ensure stable performance even in harsh environments.

- Low maintenance: a robust design with minimal moving parts reduces downtime and operational costs.

- Flexible operation: suitable for LNG, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, and other industrial gas applications.

- Reduced emissions: advanced burner technology minimizes environmental impact with cleaner combustion.


Where Are IFVs Used?

- LNG terminals & regasification plants: delivering pipeline-ready natural gas.

- Hydrogen & industrial gas facilities: ensuring a stable and continuous gas supply.

- Peak shaving & backup systems: supporting energy grids and industrial processes.

- Marine & offshore applications: providing reliable vaporization solutions for fueling operations.
