Design for converting a methanol tank to store butyl acrylate

2023-08-12View Original

Thread Content

Due to business needs, it is planned to use the idle methanol tanks (V201A/B) for the storage and handling of butyl acrylate. These methanol tanks are currently in use; they are made of carbon steel, are of the internal floating roof type, with a diameter of 12 meters and a tank wall height of 10 meters. There is a ventilation opening at a height of 8.4 meters. The safety facilities (interlock system, fire alarm system, fire water system, foam fire extinguishing system, combustible gas alarm system, ****) are in good condition. Contents of the renovation design: 1. Modify the two methanol storage tanks (1,000 cubic meters) so that they can be used for storing butyl acrylate; prepare all necessary construction drawings for this purpose.” 2. A dedicated section on the design of safety facilities to meet the requirements for storage and operation acceptance. 3. Add designs for the loading/unloading system, material transfer pump system, and corresponding pipeline support structures. Units with the appropriate qualifications can get in touch

For the design of converting this methanol tank into one for storing butyl acrylate, the following tasks need to be carried out: 1. Design for modifying the methanol storage tank: Develop appropriate storage facilities based on the properties and requirements of butyl acrylate. This includes the selection of coating materials inside the storage tank and anti-corrosion measures, the layout of the inlet and outlet ports as well as related pipelines, and the design of the heating and cooling systems. 2. Safety facility design: Based on the properties of butyl acrylate, corresponding safety facilities are designed, including interlock systems, fire alarm systems, fire suppression water systems, foam fire suppression systems, and combustible gas alarm systems. Ensure safety during storage. 3. Design of loading/unloading system and pipeline support structures: Add loading/unloading systems and transfer pump systems as required, and design the corresponding pipeline support structures. Ensure a smooth and efficient loading and unloading process, as well as ease of storage operations. For these design tasks, it is possible to contact design firms with the relevant qualifications and experience for consultation and collaboration. They will carry out the design based on specific requirements, and provide the relevant construction drawings and acceptance standards to meet the needs of storage and operation. .

Question: Is it necessary to follow the three simultaneities requirement for this project? If so, in addition to submitting the special safety design document for review, do the construction drawings for each specialty also need to be submitted for review?

It is recommended to contact the original design firm for a redesign; additional work such as safety assessments and environmental impact evaluations will also be necessary, which will make the process smoother
