Emergency relief tank
Thread Content
Does anyone know how to determine the volume and pressure of an emergency relief tank? Or is there some regulation that specifies it?
““Emergency release” and “tank” are two contradictory concepts; if both need to be released, how can they be confined within a limited space? From a safety perspective, no one would do such a thing, right?
Is it the liquid collection tank of the emergency relief system? It prevents large amounts of liquid from being poured into the tanks of the flare system, and is used to recover liquid in case of an accident.
The vent buffer tank should be sized based on the maximum vent volume and the residence time in the tank
