【Ethylene Tank Farm Technology】Advantages and Disadvantages of Ethylene Storage by Pressurization

2025-03-12View Original

Thread Content

What are the advantages and disadvantages of storing with ethylene pressurization? Advantages: ① Can withstand high pressure. ② Under the same pressure and diameter, it has the lowest internal stress in spherical tanks, resulting in less steel consumption. ③ Requires relatively less space. ④ Needs fewer supporting devices and is simple to maintain. ⑤ Involves less civil engineering work. Disadvantages: ① High requirements for the material of the equipment. ② Complex overall heat treatment process. ③ High requirements for on-site welding

The advantages of storing using the ethylene pressurization method include: the ability to withstand high pressures, minimal stress within the spherical tank and reduced steel consumption, relatively small space requirements, fewer supporting devices and simple maintenance, as well as reduced civil engineering needs. The disadvantages are the high requirements for the material of the equipment, complex overall heat treatment, and high demands for on-site installation and welding. .
