Where is the appropriate location for the relief valve on the liquid ammonia tank (15 cubic meters) to discharge to?

Where is the appropriate place for the safety valve on the liquid ammonia tank (15 cubic meters) to discharge its contents? 1. Send it along with the low-pressure gas to the gas holder, where it can be compressed and used as fuel for heating furnaces. 2. Send it along with the sulfuric acid gases to be burned in a flare. 3. Is there a better way to discharge these gases? Looking forward to the answer

Additional discharge option: It can be released into the nearest acidic water storage tank for absorption; the acidic water after absorption can then be used to vaporize ammonia again.

Does the safety valve on the top of your ammonia tank vent to the acidic water tank?

Yes, not only are it the ammonia tanks, but also the safety valves of the equipment used in ammonia purification all lead to the acidic water tank

Hello, is it appropriate to enter from the area at the top of the acidic water tank? Nowadays, acid water tanks are required to be sealed, either with a nitrogen blanket or with an oil and gas recovery system

Enter from the top of the tank, but the pipe is a floor-standing pipe with the inlet below the liquid level inside the tank. This prevents a sudden absorption of large amounts of vapor inside the tank, which could create negative pressure

When ammonia is released, if there is a super ammonia absorber or a device for circulating and absorbing low-concentration ammonia solution in the system, it is best to direct the released ammonia there for absorption before reusing it. If there is none and the amount is small, the acidic water storage tank can be considered, which is also a fairly ideal destination. It is not recommended to flare it together with acidic gases.

It can lead to the emergency discharge tank; just create a large pool.

The release of ammonia gas should preferably be done in a closed system to prevent safety and environmental incidents. These days, those working in the chemical industry also need to be really careful! ! ! ! ! !
