    Membrane tanks are unique compared to other types of cryogenic storage tanks because they use a thin, flexible membrane made of high-strength materials to contain the LNG. This membrane is typically made of several layers of materials, including an outer layer of polymer-coated fabric and an inner layer of cryogenic-resistant material. Because of their flexible design, membrane tanks are able to expand and contract with changes in temperature and pressure, which reduces the risk of structural damage and leaks. They are also lighter and more compact than other types of tanks, making them easier to transport and install. However, membrane tanks may require additional maintenance due to the need to periodically inspect and replace the membrane material. Additionally, they may not be suitable for certain applications, such as in areas with high seismic activity.
