Safety issues of oil and gas recovery devices
Thread Content
I hope relevant friends can discuss the safety issues of oil and gas recovery devices. 1. What safety aspects should be considered when designing oil and gas recovery systems? 2. How should the fire separation distance between the oil and gas recovery unit and adjacent facilities and buildings be determined? 3. What safety management requirements should be understood during routine operation and management?
1. Recovery devices using different processes have varying design requirements, but the approach to preventing flash explosions of mixed oil and gas remains the same; this requires ensuring that the concentration of oil and gas stays outside the explosive range, as well as controlling any sources of ignition. 2. As for the fire separation distances for oil and gas recovery devices, I believe they should be determined based on the requirements of the specific process setup. 3. It is important to check whether there are any differences between the actual operating conditions and those specified in the design
Secondly, which standard is used to determine the fire separation distance? For example, is it based on the design codes for oil depots or those for the petrochemical industry? This raises the following question: First, the petroleum storage facility design codes do not specify a name for oil and gas recovery devices; therefore, can they be treated as oil pump rooms or as some other type of facility? If so, please explain the reasons. II. According to the petrochemical regulations, the distance between Class A facilities and above-ground floating roof oil tanks with a capacity of more than 5,000 cubic meters is required to be at least 35 meters; however, in my opinion, this requirement is somewhat too strict if followed strictly. III. Since **there are no relevant fire separation distances to be followed at present, can it be assumed that no fire separation distance is required? Of course, I think this clause is inappropriate. This post was last edited by houyingtian on 2008-2-22 16:08.]
Upstairs. Could you explain the reason and be more specific? Your range is a bit too broad. This post was last edited by houyingtian on 2008-2-25 16:12.]
Is the oil and gas recovery unit large in scale? What kind of recycling are you? I came across a gasoline recycling system; initially it was a German-made setup, and the second time I used a domestically produced one, which also gave pretty good results. However, the investment is also relatively large. The design should be carried out in accordance with the requirements for solvent production, and it should be done by a unit qualified for chemical engineering design.
Today’s gas stations are required to implement oil and vapor recovery systems, which can reduce the required safety distances; it is claimed that this helps avoid waste, but in reality the effect is not very good. In most cases, the design and submissions are done as if an oil and gas recovery system is in place, but in actual construction it isn’t installed at all – just to save some land. Hehe, it’s too difficult to enforce the regulations
There are no standards available at present; one can refer to the safety distance standards for open-air pump stations, as the main explosion-proof components in oil and gas recovery are also pumps. Additionally, nowadays combustible gas alarms are generally installed near oil and gas recovery equipment.
What I saw was a loop added to the breathing tube of the tank truck and connected to the tank.
