Liquefied hydrogen equipment

Abstract

A liquefied hydrogen facility includes: a storage tank that stores liquefied hydrogen; a first transport line that connects the storage tank and a carrier so that a boil-off gas in a gas phase portion in the storage tank can be guided to the carrier; a compression device provided on the first transport line and sucks the boil-off gas from the storage tank and sends out the boil-off gas to the carrier; and a heat exchanger provided on a downstream side of the compression device on the first transport line; and a second transport line that is disposed to extend from the storage tank to a consumer through the heat exchanger and guides, from the storage tank to the heat exchanger, hydrogen having a temperature lower than a temperature of a boil-off gas after being compressed by the compression device.
