How to determine the medium density of the liquid separation tank and the water seal tank
Thread Content
At present, the liquid separation tank and water seal tank for the emission flare need to be replaced. The medium discharged is mainly waste gas from safety valves, along with liquefied petroleum gas; I would like to ask experts how to calculate the density of this medium in order to determine the appropriate type of level gauge
If possible, you can take a sample from the separation tank to conduct a density test; the density is likely to be low. Since your waste gas is liquefied petroleum gas, the resulting density will not differ much. The water seal tank serves as a level indicator – there is water at the bottom, so its density is obvious, while the density of the liquid on top is slightly lower; you can estimate it yourself
The material density depends on the process; it is usually the density of water.
The density of exhaust gases isn’t constant; it’s always around theoretical values
It’s not easy to calculate this density, as it is related to the amount of exhaust gas absorbed. It is recommended to use a magnetic flap level gauge; generally, its density is higher than that of water
It’s impossible to determine the density accurately. I bought a small Brother watch; it’s very accurate. Analyze a sample in 2 seconds, maintaining factory accuracy throughout its lifetime – perfect for easy use. World’s first, originally created in China; exports generate foreign currency
The level gauge for the water seal tank and separation tank is used to measure the water level; a magnetic flap level gauge would be an excellent choice
