What’s the issue with the spacing between concentrated sulfuric acid storage tanks?

I would like to ask everyone: According to the provisions of Article 3.0.1 in the \"Design Code for Acid Production from Flue Gas\" and the \"Fire Protection Design Code for Non-ferrous Metals\", fuming sulfuric acid is classified as Category B, while areas for the production and storage of concentrated sulfuric acid are classified as Category C. Based on Article 4.2.2 of the \"Building Code\", fixed-roof storage tanks in Category C require a tank spacing of 0.4D. Does this mean that all sulfuric acid storage tanks in such areas must have a spacing of 0.4D, with fuming sulfuric acid tanks requiring a spacing of 0.6D? It seems that in this case, the spacing between the sulfuric acid storage tanks in many factories isn’t sufficient!
