2. How much acid and alkali is required to define it as a tank farm?
There is no specific quantitative standard for whether the storage volume of acids and bases needs to be defined as a tank area. This mainly depends on the storage and handling requirements, as well as relevant safety and environmental regulations. In large-scale industrial production, when a large amount of acids and bases need to be stored and used, dedicated tank areas are usually established. At the same time, the design of the tank area must also comply with relevant safety regulations regarding fire prevention, explosion protection, and environmental protection. Therefore, there is no fixed answer to this question; it needs to be determined based on the specific circumstances. .
Tank area: an area composed of one or more groups of tanks
It’s difficult to define this issue clearly; ordinary transfer tanks can have the necessary devices installed outside them, but for other liquids classified as Category A, B, or C, they need to be placed within the tank area, which requires loading/unloading facilities as well as compliance with certain distance requirements.
