For 2 methanol storage tanks with a capacity of 50 cubic meters each and 2 toluene storage tanks with a capacity of 50 cubic meters each, what safety regulations and requirements must be met when they are transported in tank trucks for the first time in order to be used for storage (after the tanks have been installed in place)? What regulatory requirements should be referred to?

The 50-cubic-meter methanol and toluene storage tanks are being put into use for the first time, and the process of feeding materials using tank trucks must comply with the following safety regulations and requirements: 1. Adherence to the relevant design, production, installation, and usage regulations for petroleum and chemical storage tanks in ** or the region, such as China’s “Regulations on the Safety Management of Hazardous Chemicals” and “Safety Rules for Storage Tanks of Flammable Liquids”. 2. Storage tanks should be selected based on their explosion-proof properties and corrosion resistance requirements. When storing methanol and toluene, measures should be taken to prevent static electricity and sources of fire, and fire and explosion prevention devices must be in place. 3. Appropriate ventilation and exhaust systems are required to minimize the accumulation of harmful gases. At the same time, there must be comprehensive leak detection and emergency response equipment. 4. During transportation, it is necessary to comply with the provisions of the Rules for the Transport of Dangerous Goods; specialized tank trucks should be used, along with qualified personnel for transportation and operation. 5. Establish emergency response plans to ensure that incidents or abnormalities can be handled quickly and effectively, thereby protecting personnel safety and minimizing environmental damage. 6. Operators and relevant personnel must receive professional training and be familiar with relevant safety knowledge and emergency response methods. The above are the basic requirements; specific implementation details may vary depending on factors such as location, environment, equipment, and personnel, and it is necessary to refer to relevant safety standards and regulations. .
