Spherical Tank One-on-One Technical Q&A Office
Thread Content
This post was last edited by Guan Gongyu on 2017-7-12 at 16:26. Having been in this industry for so many years, I wanted to test my knowledge and skills. Today, I’m challenging myself by setting up this one-on-one Q&A office. My strengths include sphere tank design, technology, material selection, processes, etc. Work experience: Have worked on countless spherical tank projects. I will do my best to respond to everyone’s questions in a timely manner. Please understand if I am unable to reply right away due to business trips or being at a construction site.

Amazing, great job! Let’s give them support:victory::victory::victory:
The cross-category score might not be that great, so here’s a flower as a gift~~~ Keep it up!…………
What is the largest spherical tank that has been built in China to date?
This depends on the medium: for example, with liquefied gas at 1.77 MPa, the largest capacity currently available in China is 6,000 cubic meters； Liquid ammonia at 2.16 MPa; the largest capacity in China is 4,000 cubic meters, and there is only one such instance so far ； Vacuum spherical tanks: up to 20,000 cubic meters for natural gas; 10,000 cubic meters for butane and isobutane at 0.79 MPa; up to 10,000 cubic meters for other gases. I’ll send you a table with more details. I’m sorry, it seems I can’t send the table. .
Can liquid materials at atmospheric pressure be stored in spherical tanks?
It can be installed; spherical tanks are relatively advanced types of pressure vessels. They are designed to withstand specific pressures, and their cost is much higher than that of ordinary pressure vessels. If the owner has enough money and doesn’t mind wasting resources or bearing higher economic costs, then using ordinary pressure vessels is also an option.
Can a diesel tank be converted into a crude oil tank? The unit contains six diesel tanks, and it is planned to change them to four crude oil tanks and two gasoline tanks; I’m not sure what work needs to be done.
First of all, your question does not relate to spherical tanks; they are all atmospheric pressure tanks. It is possible to make changes, but the process is rather complicated. To change the registration documents again, such as the feasibility study report or environmental and safety assessment documents, it is necessary to go through these procedures once more; as long as **all relevant authorities give their approval, the changes can be made.
The maximum capacity of medium-pressure spherical tanks in China at present
I don’t understand this, but it looks really impressive.
